PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On April 14, 2014, City Council approved Resolution No. 12924, authorizing the City to

Resolution No. 13054 approving an agreement between the City and HDR Engineering
for Phase 3 of the Travel Demand Model Update and the PACOG Long Range
Transportation Plan.
BACKGROUND:
The Urban Transportation Planning Division solicited proposals from qualified
consultants to complete an initial evaluation of the PACOG travel demand model
between January 29, 2014 and February 26, 2014. The City has previously entered into
Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3 agreements with HDR Engineering totaling $247,613 to
implement an upgrade to the travel demand model that will be utilized to refine travel
trip forecast modeling and complete integration of the travel demand model data into the
PACOG Long Range Transportation Plan. The final phase of the agreement is to work
with City Planning Department staff to complete the final PACOG 2040 Long Range
Transportation Plan for adoption by the PACOG Board prior to June 2015. The City
Urban Transportation Planning Division has reviewed the proposal for the completion of
the Phase 4 Travel Demand Model Upgrade and PACOG Long Range Transportation
Plan, and has determined that the proposal meets the requirements for responsiveness,
time sensitivity, and cost to complete the Project.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The Agreement covers the Phase 4 Scope of Work for the Project totaling $88,300.
The cost for the professional services will be paid from the Urban Transportation
Planning Projects Budget, Project TP1426.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:

Modeling Sections participated in the initial review of the four proposals received for the
Project in April of this year and concurred with the selection of HDR Engineering.
