2.3 Traffic Analysis Zones<br />

Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) are building blocks of <strong>travel</strong> <strong>demand</strong> models. They represent geographic<br />

areas in the model from which and to which trips are allocated.<br />

A particular level of geography can be designated as a TAZ and is typically based on using Census<br />

geography. Census geography is classified into blocks, block groups, tracts, and counties. The model<br />

was based on 1990 Census geography and the level of geography used was Census tracts. The same<br />

level of geography is retained in the SMART model to maintain consistency with the original structure.<br />

The entire model is comprised of 1,199 internal TAZs and 21 external TAZs. However, the study area is<br />

comprised of 108 internal traffic analysis zones. Figure 2.3-1 illustrates the TAZs in each study county.<br />
