A scenario tool that lets city planners stress-test how changes in population, zoning, transit service, or congestion pricing would shift a city's road transport CO2 emissions. Forecasts are delivered as confidence intervals calibrated on the city's own traffic-count and fleet data, with peer-city outcomes used to tune scenario assumptions rather than produce benchmark scores. Headline claims are deliberately scoped to greenhouse gases, because model accuracy is known to degrade under heavy congestion and for non-exhaust air pollutants.
The framework reveals a high-integrity technical approach that prioritizes scientific honesty (confidence intervals) over simplistic predictions. While it possesses a strong theoretical foundation in GHG modeling, its commercial viability depends on overcoming the inherent accuracy degradation of macroscopic models during the high-congestion scenarios it is designed to test.
