The Dayton, OH Urbanized Area covers parts of Ohio. Targets are agreed upon by several transportation agencies and apply to the entire area.

  • Annual Hours of Peak-Hour Excessive Delay (PHED) Per Capita

    (Ohio) ODOT took the lead on developing draft PHED targets for the Dayton urbanized area by analyzing actual PHED performance data for the five most recent calendar years (2016-2020), as well as the 5 year average performance over the period. This data was gathered from the NPMRDS database, and is based upon INRIX travel time data. The Dayton region's PHED remained incredibly flat over the period, averaging approximately 4.5 hours per year. ODOT suggested 2 and 4-year PHED targets of approximately 4.5. Dayton felt that trends in the area warranted slightly higher PHED targets of 7.2 hours. ODOT concurred with MVRPC's analysis, acknowledging the prerogative of the MPO to either adopt ODOT's recommended PHED target, or to set its own regional targets. The MVRPC Policy Board ultimately approved the 2 and 4-year targets of 7.2 hours of delay for the Dayton region.

  • Non-Single Occupancy Vehicle (Non-SOV) Travel

    (Ohio) ODOT and MVRPC worked in coordination to analyze actual non-SOV performance data for the five most recent calendar years (2016-2020), as well as the 5 year average performance over the period. This data was gathered from the American Community Survey's "Commuting to Work" data. The Dayton region's non-SOV travel was fairly stable over the period, averaging approximately 16.5% annually. All partners felt that a non-SOV travel target of 16.1% was a reasonable target to set for the 2 and 4-year periods.
