The SANDAG forecasts comprise a complex set of discussions, assumptions, input data, computations, and model interactions. This report presents a basic description of the SANDAG forecast models used in the 2050 Regional Growth Forecast, including a general flow of information and some of the key inputs, assumptions, and computations for each of the components. - Automobile Operating Cost for the Second Round of Sustainable Communities Strategies

SANDAG and Parsons Brinckerhoff evaluated the existing SANDAG travel demand model for its sensitivity to land use-related transportation emission reduction strategies. The land use characteristics that relate to transportation and behavior are known as the “4Ds,” which stand for Diversity, Density, Design, and Destination Accessibility. The 4Ds measures are used to quantify urban characteristics such as compact mixed use areas associated with Smart Growth planning. - Cross-Border Travel Behavior Survey, 2011

The extent and impact of freight movements on urban freight networks are coming under increased scrutiny by a number of stakeholders. The effort described in this report provides SANDAG with an urban freight model capable of addressing many of these issues. - Draft 2050 RTP Travel Demand Model Validation Report, 2011
