8. Stakeholder Outreach 37 planning professionals (State DOTs, MPO’s) (2 cities, 2 consult)  Association of MPO’s Meet (AMPO) - Portland, Oregon  Florida MPO Advisory Council Meet – Orlando, Florida How do they currently use HCM?  Almost all using HCM for planning purposes (some 2010, some 2000)  CMP’s, corridor studies, intersections, service vol. tables, demand modeling  Comparing alternatives, project programming/prioritization  Almost all use LOS, v/c, delay Challenges with Using HCM?  Technical nature, complexity, size Needs for HCM?  Guidance, travel time reliability, truck LOS, Advice?  One size does not fit all.

9. P&PE Apps Guide – Need, Scope, Audience Need  Improve awareness of contents of HCM  Provide guidance on overcoming data and complexity issues  Address decision making needs of planners Scope  Identify appropriate use of default values, service vol. tables, quick estimation methods for each type of planning analysis.  Demonstrate application of HCM methods.  Show how to coordinate HCM analysis methods with planning tools.  Selecting appropriate performance measures by type planning analysis. Target Audience  Professionals involved in estimating the need for and benefits of highway capacity, monitoring, management, and operations investments
