Statewide transportation planning in a rural state is presented to illustrate demand modeling using spreadsheet programs. An interactive planning approach is developed through the planner-computer interface approach to select the most applicable traffic count data for model input. For rural states in which spatial segmentation between communities is large, modeling fewer specific trip purposes is proposed. In Wyoming, this stratification resulted in two analysis trip purposes for rural statewide planning. This simplification and the results of the interactive modeling procedure illustrate the benefits of a tailored approach to statewide transportation planning for rural states with limited commuter work trips.
