This Multi-Modal Measures of Effectiveness (MMMOE) Scoring Tool has been developed to assess and compare transportation improvements and design alternatives for multimodal access and amenities in support of Complete Streets. This tool integrates District Department of Transportation (DDOT) standards and design manual recommendations for multi-modal project elements with criteria and scoring related to:
- Pedestrians
- Bicycles and micromobility devices
- Transit
- Traffic calming and speed management
- Traffic operations and capacity
- Curbside management
- Placemaking
Scoring
The scoring can be completed for Intersections or Typical Sections with links to each scoring questionnaire linked below. Within each scoring questionnaire, scores are categorized by each mode. The score for each mode will range between zero and 100, and the end result is averaged together and will also result in a total score between zero and 100. Higher scores represent more accommodations for a particular mode.
The score can be used to compare benefits by each mode and to compare overall improvement for all modes averaged together. The score comparison is best made between existing and proposed conditions, or between design alternatives for the same project location because each project has its own unique elements and needs.
Intersections is best used for a treatments at a single intersection. The default scoring is for four legs, but can be modified to 3 or 5 legs.
Typical Sections is best used for a corridor approach along one or several blocks where the design elements are similar.
Scoring Results
The scoring result can be downloaded as a PDF at the end of each questionnaire. MMMOE scoring can be used at any stage of project development, however, some criteria may be unknown in early planning stages. If a factor is unknown, scores will typically be zero. Scoring can be updated and revised as project alternatives and design elements are refined. In instances where a typical section may vary on either side of the road, defer to the best possible treatments per each mode. Should the typical section change along a corridor, a separate score may be used for each roadway segment.
