Traffic Projection

We combine our expertise in traffic growth projection methodologies, including historical regression and travel demand modeling, with our understanding of socioeconomic growth and land use development to produce reliable, data-driven projections.

Proven Track Record in Texas and Beyond

Our team members have held lead roles for more than 10 years developing traffic projections for seven TxDOT districts and private developers, following TxDOT/TPP methodology.

We excel in producing reliable projections that support planning and decision-making for highway design, environmental review, and corridor development.

Our Methodology

Two proven approaches for accurate, defensible traffic forecasts.

Historical Growth Analysis

We follow industry standards using historical traffic data from DOT Traffic Count Database Systems (TCDS), Traffic Analysis & Data Application (TADA), and other traffic mapping applications to observe trends and project future volumes within expected horizons.

Travel Demand Modeling

Our team is well-versed in utilizing MPO travel demand models (TDMs) for traffic projections across the United States. With TDMs, we capture the effects of network improvements, land use developments, and socioeconomic growth.
