Abstract: This presentation will cover the findings and lessons learned from the first year’s worth experience using the Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s (MTC’s) Travel Model One for project applications. Travel Model One is an Activity‐Based Model (ABM) covering the 9‐county San Francisco Bay Area. It is part of the Coordinated Travel‐Regional Activity‐Based Modeling Platform (CT‐RAMP) family of models, which includes members in nine locations through the US and the world. CT‐RAMP provides several important advances over the first generation of ABMs by accounting for coordinated travel among household members, the availability of time windows in activity scheduling, and enhancements to allow for improved toll forecasting.Travel Model One was completed in early 2011. The model has since been used extensively for project applications, as described in this paper.
