As many of you know we (MPOs) will soon be in the throws of
defining our Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) within our urban
areas. When working through that process one constraint,
that is new for 2000, will be that TAZs respect county
boundaries. That is, a TAZ can not cross a county
boundary. Is this something that you can live with? Will
this be a big problem for any regions?
Here in northeastern Illinois we have tended to cross over
many different political boundaries over the years but we do
respect county boundaries in our planning work.
