Abstract:This report updates the information compiled and presented in the 2008 report, “A Snapshot of Travel Modeling Activities.” The purpose of the original 2008 report was to summarize the use of travel demand models by five metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) identified by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) based on their recognized leadership in the industry and a history of using travel forecasts generated by travel demand models to support the development of regional plans. An addendum to the original 2008 report was developed in 2011 to demonstrate MPOs’ progress on modeling goals, developments, and future plans. The purpose of undergoing an update in 2023, 15 years later, was to check in with the original MPOs, as well as one additional MPO, to learn about their progress in advancing travel modeling tools and applying them in the planning process. The 2023 report update provides an opportunity to assess these MPOs’ progress in advancing their travel modeling tools and applying them in the planning process. Both the 2011 and 2023 interviews were conducted virtually, while the 2008 interviews were conducted in person. This report serves as the “2023 update” to the original 2008 report and the 2011 addendum. This update is intended to supplement, not replace, the two previous reports.
