  8. All zonal data (ZDATA1/ZDATA2/ SCHOOL/WALK) in TAZ Shape file DBF 3 Period Time-of-day & 24-Hour Highway Model 2 Period Transit TOD Model Dynamic area types Estimation of initial speeds from posted speed and signals data Estimation of capacities from roadway physical characteristics Estimation of time delays at freeway merges Equilibration of speeds in peak period pre-assignment Trips for HHs with autos distributed using highway skims, while 0-auto HHs use transit skims Micro-coding of fixed-guideway transit stations Model is validated to observed highway speeds as well as to traffic counts Transit nets kept in PT, but Trnbuild used for paths, skims and assignment Non-motorized mode choice Built-in mode choice constant estimation process Better External Trip Process for Freeways More Scrutiny of Toll Facility Data and Volumes What’s New? SERPM65 vs. SERPM6 - Corradino

  9. Setup controls and file names External – EE by period Trip Gen – LSGEN by auto ownership and TOD Highway – Includes speed and capacity calculators Distribution – Includes equilibration (FEEDBACK) of peak period highway speeds Transit Nets – PT  Trnbuild and connectors, paths, skims and fares Mode Choice Transit Assignment by access path and TOD Highway Trip Tables – Combines trip tables for assignment – 24H & TOD Highway Assignment – 24 Hour & by TOD (use most computer time) Highway Evaluation – HEVAL and RMSE by TOD and county SERPM65 – Model Flow SERPM65 vs. SERPM6 - Corradino

  15. AREA TYPES • Now dynamically calculated by Voyager script from ZDATA densities (population + employment) • ATYPE may change for each year • Definitions: • CBD (same as old CBD) • Non-CBD Low-Density (similar to old OBD) • Non-CBD Medium-Density (similar to old Residential) • Non-CBD High-Density (similar to old Fringe) • Non-CBD Very Low-Density (similar to old Rural) SERPM65 vs. SERPM6 - Corradino

  48. SERPM65:Further Directions (Contd.) • TOD Model (revision): • Revised CV scripts to allow modeling of HOT Lanes • Modify skimming for SR2 & SR3+ to allow certain lanes as HOV2 & HOV3+ • Modify mode-choice programs to incorporate the above changes in skimming • Test & Revalidate the model for modeling of HOT Lanes • Technical Report & User’s Manual on the validation and operation of revised model SERPM65 vs. SERPM6-Corradino
