  5. Background

  6. GIS at PSRC 6 What We Do • Regional Growth, Economicand Transportation Planning • Federal transportation funds to priority projects • Regional data and forecasts • Review local comprehensive plans • Forum for regional issues • Prosperity Partnership PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  7. GIS at PSRC 7 7 Who We Represent • Our Region • 4 Counties • 82 Cities and Towns • Hundreds of Special Districts PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation • Our Members • Cities, Counties, Ports and Transit • State Agencies and Tribal Governments

  8. GIS at PSRC 8 8 Our Mission To play a key regional role in keeping central Puget Sound thriving as we grow PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation Growth Management Transportation Planning PSRC Economic Development

  9. GIS at PSRC 9 9 Organization & Decision Making Relationships of PSRC Policy Bodies PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation General Assembly Executive Board Operations Committee Transportation Policy Board Growth Management Policy Board Economic Development District

  10. GIS at PSRC 10 10 Our Region is Growing Regional Growth EstimatesIn millions PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation Puget Sound forecast to see 36% increase in population & 51% increase in jobs by 2040

  11. GIS at PSRC 11 11 More Commuters Projected Share of Regional Growth By county, 2000-2040 PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation With more job growth than population growth in King County, more people will be commuting toKing from other counties for work

  12. GIS at PSRC 12 12 Growing Urban Footprint PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation Central Puget Sound 1.2 million people 1950

  13. GIS at PSRC 13 13 Growing Urban Footprint PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation Central Puget Sound 3.6 million people 2009

  14. GIS at PSRC 14 14 Vision 2040 – Growth Strategy • Develop compact communities and centers • Promote growth in Metropolitan, Core and Larger Cities • Minimize incompatible rural development • Improve regional jobs-housing balance • Develop consistent regional targeting methods and planning horizons PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  15. GIS at PSRC 15 15 Funding Program PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation Federal funds flow from the Highway Trust Fund to each state by formulas PSRC distributes $160 million annually to projects in the region’s long-range transportation plan

  16. GIS at PSRC 16 16 Sample Project PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation Port of Tacoma: $15.4 million Lincoln Avenue Grade Separation

  17. Geodatabase

  18. GIS at PSRC 18 18 Geodatabase Development • Attempt to anticipate future travel demand and other model needs (activity based, additional network detail network flexibility, etc). • Data structure on which to support PSRC planning and geospatial analysis business needs • Implement planned transportation projects as spatial features PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  19. GIS at PSRC 19 19 Model Integration PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  20. GIS at PSRC 20 20 Development • 230,000 base linear network features • Multimodal connectivity • Repository for transportation features that replaces several redundant databases at PSRC • Supports MTP project database • Enables multiuser editing and update PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  21. GIS at PSRC 21 21 Travel Demand Model Links PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation Current Emme/2 Travel Demand Model Links

  22. GIS at PSRC 22 22 Geodatabase Model Links • Any portion of the geodatabase network can be included in a travel demand model run • Non-motorized features can be included • Divided Highways represented • Ramps represented PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  23. GIS at PSRC 23 23 Geodatabase Detail Any geodatbase network feature can be added to the travel demand model network PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  24. GIS at PSRC 24 24 Integration Model I/O Application • ‘Tailors’ the model network, enables choice of links • Generalizes and streamlines model network • Enables ‘Scenarios’ of MTP projects for Transportation 2040 alternative modeling PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  26. GIS at PSRC 26 26 MTP Projects PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation MTP project feature 3491

  27. GIS at PSRC 27 27 Model I/O Application PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation MTP project 3491 adds lanes

  28. Traffic Counts

  29. GIS at PSRC 29 29 Traffic Count Data 4,368 observation points on the Metropolitan Transportation System (MTS) 754 contain information about trucks 164 are classified PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  30. GIS at PSRC 30 30 Data Sources PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  31. GIS at PSRC 31 31 Truck Counts • Major Freight Generators: • Manufacturing and Industrial Centers • SR 167 Corridor Warehousing and Distribution Centers PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  32. GIS at PSRC 32 32 Truck Counts PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation Type & Permanence

  33. GIS at PSRC 33 33 Truck Counts PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation High Priority Locations for Future Counts

  34. GIS at PSRC 34 34 Bicycle Counts Paths > Lanes > Street Trip end amenities Activity Centers Trips < 10 miles Less trips in heavy traffic PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation

  35. Vehicle Speeds

  36. GIS at PSRC 36 36 GPS Trucks Data Collected in 2003 and 2004 Nearly ½ million observation points From 8 trucking firms and 25 GPS units 14 routes considered PSRC Background Geodatabase Traffic Counts Vehicle Speeds Representation
