TBEST 5.0 – FDOT's Transit Planning Tool

Wednesday June 11, 2025 8:00am - 9:45am EDT

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Public Transit Office has developed the Transit Boardings Estimation Simulation Tool (TBEST) as a multi-faceted GIS-based modeling, planning, and analysis software toolset which integrates socio-economic, land use, and transit network data into a unique platform for scenario-based transit ridership estimation and analysis. Public transportation agencies utilize TBEST to support a variety of planning applications including 10-year strategic Transit Development Plans (TDPs), FTA-required Title VI analysis and reporting, socio-economic market analysis, transit network accessibility, Mobility on Demand analysis, grant applications, and many additional service and strategic planning workflows. This session will review the recent improvements within the TBEST 5.0 release and provide guidance on TBEST 5.0 implementation and utilization.
