The Transportation Modeling & Special Projects Team is responsible for forecasting future travel using population and employment projections based on the Future Land Use Plans of the various jurisdictions.  The team also maintains a database of roadway and travel characteristics for all major roadways in Hillsborough County, and generates maps based on these data.  Team members are responsible for the MPO's Congestion Management System (CMS), freight and goods movement planning, and Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) plans. Drawing on this and other information, the team updates related components of the Long Range Transportation Plan.  Also, the team annually updates the five-year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)  and performs air quality analysis as required.
