Travel Demand Model
The Atlanta Regional Commission Travel Demand Model is a technical tool to assist in the development of the regional transportation plan and the policy decision making process. The travel demand model utilizes a traditional four-step trip-based model process consisting of trip generation, trip distribution, mode choice, and trip assignment for the 20-county non-attainment area.
The following documentation provides further details on the Travel Demand Model and a Users Guide on how to use the various elements of the model.
