LOSPLAN is a widely used computational
;
tool developed by the Florida Department of
;
Transportation (FDOT) for determining level of service and quality of service for several modes
;
of transportation on Florida’s roadways. It is used primarily in the planning stages of new projects.
;
For bicycle and pedestrian modes, LOSPLAN
;
calculations are based on the Highway Capacity
;
Manual (HCM), published by the Transportation Research Board. Calculations for automobile and bus modes
;
are based
;
largely on HCM
;
methodologies
;
and on other
;
research-based
;
methodologies.
;
As research
;
advances ways
;
of determining
;
quality and
;
level of service, LOSPLAN is
;
updated to
;
include the
;
latest proven
;
methods.
