Kansas DOT proposed managed toll lanes to finance capacity improvements along a key suburban highway corridor (US69 in Overland Park outside Kansas City). The analysis utilized TREDIS to assess overall regional economic impacts as well as return-on-investment from the second phase project that extended tolled lanes further out from the core areas of the Kansas City metro area.

The analysis used a travel demand model to calculate impacts on volumes, speeds, distances, congestion and reliability, as well as regional and state origin-destination impacts. A toll revenue model was used to estimate revenue impacts. TREDIS factors for truck trips were updated to the applicable context, and TREDIS was then used to wider statewide effects on jobs, income, and GRP.
