WHAT THIS IS ABOUT

This workshop will introduce participants to the key concepts and procedures regarding Traffic Impact Analysis. A Traffic Impact Analysis is a study which assesses the effects that a particular development's traffic will have on the transportation network in the community. These studies vary in their range of detail and complexity depending on the type, size and location of the development. They are important in assisting public agencies in making land use decisions. These studies can be used to help evaluate whether the development is appropriate for a site and what type of transportation improvements may be necessary. Participants will be provided information on when a Traffic Impact Analysis should be prepared and a TIA example will illustrate the documentation and reporting process.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This workshop is designed for transportation planners, engineers, and public officials who are responsible for the analysis of new developments and its traffic impact on the transportation network.
