User's Guide for the TPB Travel Forecasting Model, Version 2.3, Build 38, on the 3,722-Zone Area System

Publication Date: 1/20/2012
Publication Number: 20126426
This report describes the application of a regional travel demand forecasting process, known as the TPB Version 2.3 Travel Model, which has been constructed for use in the Washington, D.C. region. The Version 2.3 model became the adopted regional travel model on Nov. 16, 2011. Revisions to the
travel model are known as “builds.” This report describes build #38 of the Version 2.3 Travel Model, also known as Version 2.3.38. The Version 2.3 Travel Model is distinguished from prior TPB travel models in that it has been developed over a new 3,722 transportation analysis zone (TAZ) system, and it has been calibrated and validated with several sources of recently collected travel data, including the COG/TPB 2007/08 Household Travel Survey and several on‐board transit surveys. The TPB Travel Forecasting Subcommittee provided oversight for the Version 2.3 Model development effort.
