Douglas Port of Entry Traffic Study

The Arizona Department of Transportation, Jacobs and TIS Consulting are currently developing a traffic forecasting study for the Douglas Port of Entry. The project objectives are to forecast the number of crossings at the Douglas-Agua Prieta land port of entry (2015, 2020 and 2030), determine whether the current and planned infrastructure will be capable of withstanding the forecast traffic growth for the different modes of transportation at satisfactory levels of service and identify and finally identify the improvements needed to remedy instances with unacceptable performance.

Additionally the project will identify and address the most critical current and future transportation needs of the LPOE including; current situation of border connectivity, current bottlenecks of the crossing traffic, significant drivers of traffic flow, demand projections for each mode of transportation, determine capacity utilization in critical infrastructure, recommendations to improve border connectivity between the City of Douglas and City of Agua Prieta and develop an integrated infrastructure improvement system that can adapt to different traffic demands.

The Douglas Port of Entry traffic study is schedule to be completed in January 2013
