Mill Creek K-8 Conversion & Renovation

Mill Creek K-8 Conversion & Renovation St. Augustine, Florida DCCM provided site planning, engineering, permitting, and construction engineering inspection services for the Mill Creek K-8 Expansion in St. Johns County, Florida. This project converted an existing K-5 campus into a K-8 facility to support the district’s continued growth and evolving educational needs. DCCM’s work included comprehensive site planning and civil engineering support to help the campus transition successfully, with attention to regulatory compliance, constructability, and maintaining safe, functional operations as improvements were delivered. Throughout the project, DCCM supported permitting coordination and provided CEI services during construction to help confirm the work was implemented in accordance with the approved plans and applicable requirements. DCCM was later engaged under an additional services agreement to provide civil engineering services for a cafeteria expansion and an outdoor dining pavilion at Mill Creek K–8 School. This effort expanded food service capacity and added outdoor gathering space to better serve increasing student enrollment. DCCM designed utility additions and grading improvements to support the new cafeteria and pavilion structures, and coordinated with the St. Johns River Water Management District to secure necessary permit modifications. The team prepared construction documentation and provided limited construction administration services to help ensure the improvements aligned with project requirements and regulatory expectations. Building on prior experience at the campus, DCCM leveraged familiarity with existing site conditions and infrastructure to streamline coordination, reduce risk, and support efficient, cost-effective delivery.

Travel Demand Model Update and Demographics

Travel Demand Model Update and Demographics Tyler, Texas Transportation planning in the Tyler urbanized area is performed by the Tyler Area MPO in close cooperation with the TxDOT. The travel demand forecast model for the area is maintained by TxDOT using the TRIPCAL5 program for the trip generation. This model is an excellent ‘what if’ tool in the MPO planners arsenal. However, it requires various demographic data, including population, number of households, average household size, median household income, and employment for the base year and the forecast years as inputs. The Tyler Area MPO is responsible for providing this required demographic data to TxDOT. The Tyler Area MPO has requested the resources of a consulting firm to assist in developing 2018 base-year and 2050 planning horizon-year socioeconomic data inputs to the TRIPCAL5 trip generation program. In addition, the MPO will need intermediate year data (2023, 2028, and 2033). These inputs include population, households, income and employment. The following general steps will be employed in the development of the demographic and socioeconomic data: Collect data from various data sources, both public and private. Develop population, group quarter, household, and employment control totals for base year and forecast years Develop base year population, household, and employment numbers at the TAZ level. Develop forecast year population, household, and employment numbers at the TAZ level. Develop median income for TAZs for base year, and estimate trends to forecast future years. Conduct demographic review for reasonableness and completeness. Document the methodology used with this report. A quality control process will be used to ensure the accuracy of the results produced. Both the accuracy of the calculations and the reasonableness of the results will be assessed during the quality control process.

2040 Horizon TDM

2040 Horizon Travel Demand Model El Paso, Texas Working directly with the El Paso MPO, TxDOT El Paso District, and TxDOT Transportation Planning and Programming (TPP), DCCM completed a total redesign and redevelopment of the El Paso MPO TDM to bring it up to state-of-the-practice standards. DCCM also improved model reporting and production of level-of-service measures in sufficient detail to support air quality conformity analysis that used the newly deployed MOVES mobile source emissions software. To accomplish this, DCCM carried out the following transportation planning and analysis services: Developed the model architecture necessary to satisfy the planning requirements for the region Incorporated updated demographic and employment base year estimates and future year forecasts (created by DCCM under a separate project) into the travel demand model Verified the base-year network Developed the forecast-year network Developed and tested model components and calibrated model components Validated and implemented the overall model user interface Using the redesigned model, DCCM performed testing and analysis of forecast year transportation scenarios for the El Paso 2040 MTP update. DCCM also performed a transit onboard survey designed to meet FTA best practice guidelines and provide data capable of supporting calibration of a model for use in FTA New Starts and Small Starts investment-grade transit corridor analysis.

Grant Support and Development

Grant Development and Support Statewide, Texas DCCM serves as a key member of the consultant team supporting the TxDOT Federal Affairs Division in the development of competitive applications for federal discretionary grant programs. These efforts span major programs such as Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD), Infrastructure for Rebuilding America (INFRA), Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE), and Promoting Resilient Operations for Transformative, Efficient, and Cost-Saving Transportation (PROTECT). DCCM’s role encompasses four primary areas of responsibility: 1 Project Evaluation and Eligibility Review: DCCM evaluates candidate projects submitted by TxDOT districts and divisions to determine eligibility under federal funding notices. This includes assessing project readiness, alignment with federal priorities, and consistency with TxDOT’s statewide goals and strategic objectives. Grant Application Development: For projects meeting eligibility criteria, DCCM prepares full grant applications, including narrative development, technical documentation, and supporting analyses. Notably, DCCM prepared a 2023 PROTECT grant application for a Statewide Flood Warning System valued at $3.4 million. Analytical Support and Project Justification: DCCM conducts the technical analyses required to strengthen and justify grant applications, including economic impact assessments, travel demand forecasts, sensitivity analyses, and other economic studies. In 2021, DCCM contributed to the successful RAISE grant application for The Loop – Trinity Forest Spine Trail in Dallas, securing funding to advance a 50‑mile urban trail network. Project Pipeline Development: DCCM supports the creation of a statewide “project pipeline,” a dashboard tool designed to identify, filter, and prioritize strong candidates for future federal grant opportunities. This tool streamlines decision‑making and enhances TxDOT’s ability to strategically position projects for competitive funding. Beyond these core tasks, DCCM planners and data analysts apply their expertise in FAST Act performance measures to track and report project outcomes relative to national goals and federal performance management requirements, key components of the discretionary grant selection process. DCCM also prepares program‑level opinions of probable cost (OPCC) and integrates these with project analyses to perform benefit‑cost analyses (BCA) consistent with BUILD and other federal grant criteria, ensuring that applications are both technically sound and competitively positioned.
