Emerging transportation technologies and shared mobility services, or new mobility options (NMOs), are affecting travel behavior and demand. NMOs may include shared micromobility, transportation networking companies (TNCs), and connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs). As NMOs grow in availability and use, transportation planners and decision-makers need to be able to understand how to harness positive and mitigate negative impacts.

NCHRP Research Report 1113: New Mobility Options in Travel Demand Forecasting and Modeling: A Guide, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, provides travel demand modeling practitioners with ways to consider NMOs in travel demand forecasting models (TDFMs) - one of the primary tools available to understand potential impacts and future uncertainties.

Supplemental to the report are NCHRP Web-Only Document 399: Developing a Guide for New Mobility Options in Travel Demand Forecasting and Modeling; datasets of Use Case 1: Data, Code, and Tutorials for Household Vehicle Ownership Use Case; Use Case 2: Data, Code, and Tutorials for Household Trip Rates Use Case; Use Case 3: Data, Code, and Tutorials for Mode Choice Use Case; an Implementation of Research Findings and Products document; and a PowerPoint presentation of the research.
