For over thirty years, Mc
Trans
has exhibited at the TRB Annual Meeting and we will be there again this year. Please stop by to see us at Booth 717 in the Exhibit Hall Sunday from 4 - 7 PM, Monday from 9 AM - 4 PM, and Tuesday from 9 AM - 4 PM.
Our staff will be available to answer questions and share our plans regarding the Highway Capacity Software (
HCS7
), other software products, and exciting growth plans for the Mc
Trans
Center overall. You can pick up the latest newsletter, an
HCS7
demo, or bring a file for our staff to review. Hope to see you there!

Intersection Capacity Analysis: Are You Doing It Wrong?
Published in the ITE Journal, January 2020
By Tom Creasey, PE, Ph.D. and Bill Sampson, P.E.
The Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) Signalized Intersection Analysis method has been one of the most often used analysis tools since the “modern” method was introduced in the 1985 edition of the manual. The method is applied to evaluate the sufficiency of intersection operations for varying levels of traffic demand, both undersaturated and oversaturated. The sad truth is that the method is often wrongly applied when conditions are oversaturated. This article discusses the two most common mistakes that are made and illustrates the impacts of performing the analysis incorrectly.
