It is a web based tool that:
- let you play with different scenarios
- is easy to use by all planners
- presents results quickly (< 10 minutes per scenario)
In the case of Austin TX the tool was used to:
- show the bicycle potential
- demonstrate the impact of cycling on congestion

What did the MOVE Meter add to the process
in Austin ?

pagina 19 Network development and design with the MOVE Meter
…”Austin officials gave the firm (MOVE Mobility)
transportation planning data from its Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO), and they
now have a
tool by which to analyze how bicycle infrastructure
can affect the transportation system as a whole.
The
introduction to the tool allowed us to see one way
and one tool Dutch cities use to make transportation
decisions related to bicycles."

Click on the zones where you want to build 20.000 houses.
The MOVE Meter calculates trips and divides them over the region.
Impact of infill or sprawl in Utrecht (1)
Scenario 1: Condense in the city Scenario 2: Urban sprawl

Impact of infill or sprawl in Utrecht (2)
Increase of traffic when condensing Increase when spreading
Building in the city induces an increase of (shorter) car trips.

pagina 30 Network development and design with the MOVE Meter
• Web based (you can use any PC/laptop anywhere);
• Easy to use (no need to know Transport Planning
Software);
• Quick scenario analyses;
• Based on data from your own Transportation Model;
• Scenario analyses ready after 10-15 minutes.
Why is the MOVE meter so fast?
1.
The MOVE Meter works with less
zones. It aggregates data from zones
that are further away from the area
you have pointed out as focus area.
2.
The MOVE meter focuses on the
issues addressed. So when you want
to assign an OD-matrix to get an idea
of the effects on V/C ratios, the MOVE
Meter assigns the OD matrix without
calculating new speeds or changes in
modal split.
