The Mobility Trends County Modeling dataset consists of the accumulation of the three performance metrics: VMT, GHG, and TMS, alongside each of the trend indicators: GDP, Population, Lane Miles, Unemployment Rate, Charging Stations, Telework, Unlinked Passenger Trips, E-commerce, Population Density, and on-demand service revenue. The goal of Mobility Trends and Future Demand research project is to enhance FHWA’s empirical understanding of the impact of trends on travel behavior and transportation demand, and ultimately system performance and the user experience. At the core of this research project is the identification and analysis of trends to support a variety of modeling, forecasting, and ‘what if’ projections to support policy and decision making.
