The El Paso Travel Demand Model

The El Paso MPO and its affiliated stakeholders use the El Paso MPO Regional Travel Demand Model as a tool to forecast traffic and travel in communities throughout the region. The primary purpose of the travel model is to support the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP). The model can support evaluation of proposed roadway and transit projects, help evaluate potential impacts of proposed development projects, and support various other studies of the region, subareas, corridors, and other planning activities. The latest model has been calibrated to reflect a base year of 2017 and contains future year data reflecting forecast 2050 conditions. Interim year data representing several intermediate timeframes is also maintained in the travel model dataset. This version of the model, named the Regional Mobility Strategy (RMS) Model, includes interim years 2022, 2032 and 2040. The validation report for RMS 2050 TDM can be downloaded here.
