Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) commissioned the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) and the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) to perform a research study of the integration of the transportation system with the UTEP transportation master plan. The objective was to document a methodology to analyze the interaction of a university campus transportation system and its surrounding metropolitan transportation system and to integrate both systems in a seamless fashion. The study used UTEP as a case study, but its results have a near‐term applicability for TxDOT, particularly in urban areas where there is highly dense university campus populations.
