Event Description/Abstract
COVID has impacted traffic volumes, travel patterns, and even trip generation across our country. This session will explore COVID’s impact on Indianapolis traffic and how to address it. We’ll demonstrate how impacts differ in urban areas and depend on adjacent land use, adjusted work schedules, socio-economic forces, and transit access. We’ll compare Indianapolis to national trends and conclude with open discussions regarding future TIAs and the potential permanency of adjusted travel patterns.
