... The methodology is not designed to predict pollutant concentrations or ozone formation resulting from traffic-flow improvement projects. Rather, the methodology uses the best available emission factors and vehicle operations and activity data to estimate net changes in emissions of ozone precursors, CO, and particulates.
From page 169...
... (Extensive transportation capacity investments in one metropolitan area can also increase the net inmigration to the region, but this effect will not be considered in this research.) Thus, the NCHRP 25-21 methodology addresses four basic mechanisms by which traffic-flow improvements can influence mobile source emissions: • Operational improvements that smooth out traffic flow and thus reduce acceleration/deceleration events, • Travel time savings and losses on particular routes and modes of travel that influence the traveler's choice of the most cost-effective means for satisfying their demand to travel, • Travel time savings that increase the total demand for travel, and • Travel time savings that increase the relative attractiveness and therefore the growth rate of subareas in the region.

... also will be unaccounted for. 2.2 OUTLINE OF THE METHODOLOGY The recommended methodology is a blended macroscopicmicroscopic approach composed of five modules: • The HCM Assignment Module predicts the highway travel times based upon traffic operations analysis speedflow equations contained in the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM)
From page 171...
... The improved road section will have higher operating speeds and fewer and milder acceleration/deceleration events. If the improvement also increases peak capacity, then more vehicles will be able to pass through the improved segment during the US ER 'S G UI DE Growth Redistribution Module Growth Redistribution Module Traveler Behavior Response Module HCM Assignment Module Traffic-Flow Improvement Baseline OD Tables Baseline Network Assign Traffic Using HCM Curves HCM Assignment Module Vehicle Modal Activity Module Vehicle Modal Activity Module Vehicle Emissions Module Vehicle Emissions Module VMT VHT Assign Traffic Using HCM Curves HCM Assignment Module Results Base Short Term Long Term Assign Revised Traffic Using HCM Curves Revised HCM Assignment Module Assign Revised Traffic Using HCM Curves Revised HCM Assignment Module VMT VHT VMT VHT Traveler Behavior Response Module Traveler Behavior Response Module Assign Revised Traffic Using HCM Curves Revised HCM Assignment Module Figure 1.

... . The Traveler Behavior Response Module predicts how travel demand will react to the travel time savings created by traffic-flow improvements.
From page 173...
... The primary effects of traffic-flow improvement projects relate to speeds and delay along specific corridors. The direct emission effects include • Running exhaust emissions (due to changes in vehicle speed and acceleration profiles, as well as changes in VMT due to route choice)
From page 174...
... For signalized streets, the free-flow speed is the maximum mean speed of traffic obtained at any point between signalized intersections for low-volume conditions. The mean speed is computed as the sum of the travel times to traverse the length of the segment, divided into the length of the segment times the number of vehicles in the sample.
From page 175...
... See the HCM for appropriate values for the adjustment factors. 3.3 HCM/AKCELIK SPEED-FLOW EQUATION The mean speed for each segment during the peak period is estimated using the following equations taken from the 2000 HCM.

... procedures contained in the 2000 HCM. These two tables use the following HCM definitions of facility types: • Freeway -- A multilane, divided highway with a minimum of two lanes for the exclusive use of traffic in each direction and full control of access without traffic interruption.

... C = average cycle length for all signals on the segment (seconds) ; and DF = delay factor, = 0.9 for uncoordinated traffic-actuated signals, = 1.0 for uncoordinated fixed-time signals, = 1.2 for coordinated signals with unfavorable progression, = 0.9 for coordinated signals with favorable progression, and = 0.6 for coordinated signals with highly favorable progression.

... A description of the STEP model and the theory behind the model is presented in Elizabeth Deakin and Greig Harvey's Transportation Pricing Strategies for California: An Assessment of Congestion, Emissions, Energy and Equity Impacts: Final Report, prepared for the California Air Resources Board, 1996. The model has several features that distinguish it from traditional four-step travel models: • Simultaneous modeling of trip generation, time of day, mode choice, and destination choice.
From page 180...
... A constant elasticity demand model in the following form was fitted to the Portland model: Equation 10 Where: εmpm′p′ = the elasticity of demand for travel from origin i to destination j by mode m in time period p (denoted by ˜ ˜T T t t ij mp ij mp ij m p ij m p m p m p mp =     ′ ′ ′ ′ ′ ′ ∏ ′ ′ ε Tmpij ) with respect to travel time origin i to destination j by mode m′ in time period p′ (denoted by tijm′p′)
From page 181...
... As shown in the table, a 10-percent decrease in AM peak-period travel time for drive alone would result in the following predicted demand effects: • A 2.25-percent increase in drive alone during the AM peak, • A 0.37-percent decrease in shared ride during the AM peak, • A 0.36-percent decrease in transit riders during the AM peak, • A 1.24-percent increase in drive alone during the PM peak, and • A 1.70-percent increase in drive alone during the off peak. 14 4.4 ALTERNATE METHODS FOR DERIVING ELASTICITIES Most users of the NCHRP 25-21 methodology can probably use the elasticities provided in Table 6 without having to repeat the application of the Portland model to the Seattle test bed.

... When a sophisticated land-use model exists in a region, it can be used to predict the long-term growth effects. When such a model is not available, the simplified model described here is proposed for use to approximate the long-term land-use effects of traffic-flow improvements.
From page 184...
... The simple linear model was selected for the sake of efficiency, enabling more rapid computations of the impacts of various traffic-flow improvement projects. A T Fi j ij j = ∗∑ The analyst can also adopt a more elaborate measure of accessibility than the simple gravity model denominator suggested above.

... CMEM calculates emission rates for feasible values of vehicle speeds and accelerations based on vehicle weight and engine power output. The development of speed-acceleration vehicle activity in the traffic module must be constrained to these feasible values.
From page 192...
... 7.5 ADDITIONS TO VEHICLE EMISSION MODULE The current NCHRP 25-21 methodology does not treat the impacts of traffic-flow improvements on running evaporative emissions, refueling emissions, cold starts, and heavyduty vehicles. If the analyst can create modifications to the basic CMEM rate tables to account for these effects, then the modified tables can be substituted into the NCHRP 25-21 methodology.
