Citywide Transportation Plan: Scope of Work B.B. - Page 18 October 2016 Page 13 of 21 by roadway segment. It also is capable of assigning bicycle and pedestrian trips to a model network, which will allow for more detailed analysis of the benefit to new walking and bicycling network connections. This model would incorporate existing roadway and traffic control information, land use data, origin-destination (O-D) data by mode from the regional travel model, and (optionally) other available O-D information from Big Data sources; and would be calibrated to replicate the current transportation system performance and the existing travel patterns. The Visum model would include freeways, arterial streets, local connector streets, and key local streets. It would also incorporate transit networks, bike lanes, and sidewalks (if available from the City) along these corridors within city limits. We will work with the City to develop a cumulative year model to reflect the approved and planned land use development, as well as currently-planned improvements to the City's transportation network. The existing and cumulative models will be used in conjunction with the other tools described in this section to develop priority zones by mode and evaluate benefits and tradeoffs of the proposed improvements. Optional Deliverables:Existing and future year mesoscopic travel models and model development documentation. Task D.3: Prioritization Criteria and Scoring System for Projects We will refine prioritization criteria based on a scoring system to be developed in conjunction with the City and the study's Policy Advisory Committee(if used). Prioritization of performance measures will be informed by the preferred modal elements discussed in the initial phase of the project, as well as the effectiveness of each element at improving system performance based on the latest empirical and analytic research.If appropriate,select criteria may also be assigned weightings based on their relative contribution to overall transportation performance goals. The scoring system will take into consideration all modes of transportation and prioritize identified project improvements based on the type of corridor.It will also consider input received from the outreach process to assist in identifying projects or programs that have a particularly high level of public support. The results of the scoring system will be presented in a brief memorandum to be reviewed by the City prior to proceeding with scoring specific projects or programs. Deliverables:Draft and Final Existing Prioritization and Scoring System.
