Village of Corrales Transportation Study, 2004
In July 2003, the Village of Corrales, New Mexico initiated a comprehensive transportation study to address a number of specific issues related to the Village’s street system. The study came about as a result of concerns raised by the public at Village meetings, primarily relating to congestion and excessive traffic on Village streets. Many of the concerns have been identified but not resolved in previous studies; consequently, part of the analysis was to assemble and reevaluate past work and present this information in a format for decision-making. The study primarily focuses on six transportation issues and addresses specific suggestions and concerns regarding these issues that have been identified through previous public involvement.
Hobbs Transportation Master Plan: Hobbs, URS for City of Hobbs, NM, 1997-1998
This project involved a team of transportation professionals and the City of Hobbs staff who developed a Transportation Master Plan for the city and surrounding area. TEC’s primary role was to develop the land use and demographic data that supported development of the Tmodel transportation-forecasting model. TEC also prepared a series of GIS maps showing the demographic character and growth potential of the study subareas.
City of Alamogordo Comprehensive Traffic Study and Plan Update, 1996-2000
This project involved preparing data on existing and future housing, employment, and the student population. Detailed information was developed on the location of existing land uses and a land use map was prepared to depict existing development within the study area (which includes the city limits and part of the city extraterritorial jurisdiction). The Comprehensive Traffic Study evaluated traffic counts, accident data, roadway conditions, and transportation issues or problem areas defined by a technical advisory committee of city staff and local agency representatives. A traffic forecasting model was developed with the TModel2 software and a series of classes were held to train city staff. The final study identified ten areas where future capital improvement projects or corridor studies would be needed to address the earlier identified transportation issues. The study provided an overall assessment of the scope, transportation needs, alternatives, design issues, environmental constraints, and costs for each project area.
