• Abstract:
  The TTI CM/ AQ Evaluation Model was originally developed for the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) by JHK & Associates. After reviewing it, the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) sought enhancements to this model for use in Texas and other nonattainment states. The resulting model is called the TTI CM/ AQ Evaluation Model. The TTI CM/ AQ Evaluation Model evaluates potential projects based on the following criteria: eligibility, travel impacts, emission impacts, and cost-effectiveness. To compare independent projects within a region during the decision process for CM/AQ funding, each project evaluated with this model is given an overall score based on the project's effects for the criteria listed above. Training workshops were held by TTI in the first quarter of 1995 to teach metropolitan planning organization, state department of transportation, and regional air quality organization staff how to use this model. Basics of sketch-planning applications were also taught.
