TRB and the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) are cosponsoring a series of webinars about implementing the Highway Capacity Manual 6th Edition (HCM6): A Guide for Multimodal Mobility Analysis. This series of webinars will present the new analysis procedures incorporated into HCM6 and why these tools are vital to helping analyze today’s transportation problems. The webinars will cover implementing the HCM6 in various settings, such as reliability, multi-modal facilities, freeways, alternative intersections and interchanges, and interrupted flow facilities.

Visit the ITE website to register for each webinar or for all the webinars at a discounted rate.  For questions about this series, contact Courtney Day at mailto:cday@ite.org?subject=Question%20about%20HCM6%20Webinar%20Series.
