Develop scenarios

Things that are needed for scenario development:

General

ActivitySim

How to get synthetic population / Which variables to use from PUMS?
How to use skims from WFRC model / Which skims to use?
How to input transit?
- Options:
  - TAZ Skims (get from CUBE)
  - TAPs and TAP skims (do we use these?)
How to input WFH?
- Built-in WFH model
  - Separate models for fully WFH and blended
  - Need to make model spec, copy from WFRC?

WFRC

How to input transit?
- We found the transit file(s)
- Can easily change headway, but the numbers (zone?) are confusing
How to adjust WFH?
- WFRC has built this in to their model a bit
- How did they do that?
- How specifically do we adjust it?

Scenario-specific

Prison redevelopment

What to change SE data to?
- WFRC has projections, should we use those?
Add BRT as planned?
- WFRC probably has this, need to check

FrontRunner double-tracking

Change speed?
- In WFRC model, use network 'speed' value
- How to do in ActivitySim?

WFH

Different % for different job types
- Edit model spec in ActivitySim
- This is probably built in to WFRC?
Discretionary trips go up?
- How to do this
