• Abstract:
  The Oregon Department of Transportation (Oregon DOT) is putting into place a number of tools and methods designed to be quick response methods that provide high-level information in a timely and low-cost manner. These tools and methods differ from typical travel model practice. Instead of approaching the problem with increased levels of detail and model complexity, these methods distill useful information from simplified inputs and modeling strategies. They are not designed to predict travel behavior; instead they provide information on how projects and plans can be expected to affect the transportation environment. The following tools, data and methods are profiled below: Level of Traffic Stress (LTS), Transportation Cost Index (TCI), Crowd Sourced Non-Motorized Travel Data, Fuzzy Systems Dynamics Modeler (FSDM) - Assessing Future Uncertainty, Integrated Intermodal Data Network
