Traffic Analysis Tools

The Traffic Analysis Tools Program was formulated by FHWA in an attempt to strike a balance between efforts to develop new, improved tools in support of traffic operations analysis and efforts to facilitate the deployment and use of existing tools. FHWA has established two tracks under the Traffic Analysis Tools Program: the deployment track and the development track.

Deployment Track

This track concentrates on the needs and concerns of the traffic analysis stakeholder community:

Guidance

Training

Training and Workshops – Provided through National Highway Institute for Highway Capacity Manual and CORSIM.

Development Track
