Use of transport models is an important element in all transport planning and central when calculating the effects of various measures. The Transport model group covers theoretical and practical development of new and existing transport models for passenger and freight transport, and the use of the models in specific analyzes.
The group contributes to the improvement of the transport authorities’ model system, consisting of The National passenger transport model (NTM6), The Regional passenger model (RTM) and The National freight transport model. We also develop new types of models, including a new market potential model for RUTER (MPM) and an activity-based model for Trondheim.
