Implementation Options
Option 1- Chained by not Integrated
Conventional Approach
• Demand model estimates peak period OD table for base
year
• OD estimation process used in microsimulation model to
adjust base year OD table to match traffic counts
• Base year calibration adjustments carried forward and
applied to all future OD tables produced by the demand
model
• Apply capacity constraint

Mode Shift and Transit Traveler Information –
Distribution of Mode Shifters around Incident
In the presence of a major incident (2 freeway
lanes blocked for 45 minutes) 150-490 drivers
shifted to transit. Mode shift of 1-4% of travelers
affected by the incident
20
Mode shift results from DSP based on Pivot-
point Probabilities (Normal Demand)
