Brian Isaacson MnDOT Metro District March 22, 2010
Peer exchange Integrated Corridor Management U of M Duluth New Directions (and how will we get there?)
September 2009 NAS looking to articulate how and when to use Mesoscopic Modeling/Dynamic Traffic Assignment Caltrans Legislature passed laws requiring detailed greenhouse gases. Resulted in extensive model improvements statewide Allocated over $12M to upgrade models Good for assessing the value of operational type improvements?
The workshop TRB /Caltrans Best Practices Minnesota example I-394/TH 7/TH 55 project Uncertain about whether model runs/assumptions Much discussion about integrated corridor management as an emerging way to more effectively deal with congestion/manage urban systems
Visiting Professor Under Dr Eil Kwon s direction Projects to test Dynus-T out 494/35W I-94 (Between St Paul and Minneapolis) Other ideas?
Potential for Greenhouse Gas analysis as a requirement Parallel corridor impacts associated with minimal trunk highway project Greater emphasis on operational improvements (and wanting understand the benefits) Integration of more MODES?!
