No, all of Tennessee’s MPOs use the same modeling software but maintain independent versions of their model that are specific to each MPO’s region. Q: Did NCFRPC complete a cost-benefit analysis of the four scenarios developed for the 2025 LRTP? A: Yes, the cost-benefit analysis is part of the process for measuring scenario outcomes. Q: When assessing the percentage of population served by transit for each of the four scenarios, did NCFRPC receive many questions about how these figures were determined? A: No, NCFRPC did not receive many questions about how it determined the percentage of population served by transit. To develop the percentage figures, NCFRPC calculated what percentage of population would included within a quarter-mile “buffer” zone around transit systems.
