TEXAS TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT PRACTICE

A MANUAL IS PRESENTED TO PROVIDE THE HIGHWAY DESIGN ENGINEER WITH A GUIDE FOR THE USE OF COMPUTER TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT DATA AS DEVELOPED IN TEXAS IN THE GEOMETRIC DESIGN OF PROPOSED HIGHWAY FACILITIES. THE TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT PROCESS WAS DEVELOPED: (1) TO IDENTIFY CORRIDORS IN WHICH ADDITIONAL STREETS AND HIGHWAYS CAN BE EXPECTED TO BE NEEDED, AND (2) TO OBTAIN AN ESTIMATE OF THE FUTURE VOLUME THROUGH THESE CORRIDORS. THE MANUAL PROVIDES A BASIC REVIEW OF THE PRINT-OUTS PROVIDED BY THE SEVERAL TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT PROGRAMS.
