It also includes county-to-county travel data for forecasting San Joaquin County trips through the Tri-Valley and to other Bay Area destinations. Figure 1. San Francisco Bay Area Network This project covers the vicinity of three cities: Dublin, Pleasanton, and Livermore. These are so-called the Tri-Valley. The network infrastructure was built based on three corridors of freeway or highway: I-580, I-680, and Route 84. As the three cities have been undergoing massive growth in land use and employment, the primary transportation corridors located in the study area are over capacity during the peak hours.
As Figure 3 shows, when Baiyu Road Bridge is built, the bicycle corridor on Lanxi and Baiyu Road will attract lots of cyclists lived in Caoyang Community. As for previous cyclists who use Caoyang Road as commute routes, young people who prefer tranquility and freedom may probably transfer to the bicycle corridor, while those care about physical strength and time consumption can still ride on Caoyang Road. 2 Notion 2: Pedestrian & Cyclist Island and Bicycle Corridors In Shanghai central city, with the development of Mobilization Process, rapidly constructed expressways and main roads, like Huangpu River, completely separated the space for pedestrians and cyclists into pieces.
The mode choice step determines the origin-destination trip whether will be made by private vehicle or by public transit. Then the assignment step assigns peak hour trips to specific streets and freeways. 2 Background of the Project The Contra Costa Transportation Authority (CCTA), in the San Francisco Bay Area, maintains a traffic demand model which was developed in the TRANSCAD application for Contra Costa County, which is one of the 9 counties that make up the San Francisco Bay Area. The traffic model includes all of the Bay Area land development and roadway network data.
