Information from SFRPC's ""10 Years Down The Road"" 2011 report on the State Road 7 Collaborative:
The importance of SR 7 as a major north-south regional connection was increased when the University Drive connection between Broward and Palm Beach counties was removed from local thoroughfare plans. The area is bounded by Sample Road in Broward County, Glades Road in Palm Beach County, Florida’s Turnpike, and the Everglades. FDOT, along with a multi-jurisdictional working group, developed a Transportation Network Needs Assessment, part of a three-step mobility action plan that was framed during a meeting of all interested parties convened by the secretaries of the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) and FDOT in November 2007. FDOT is providing technical support for the third part of the plan, and the development of an Implementation Strategy of realistic multimodal transportation solutions. A Multimodal Quality of Service (MMQOS) Assessment was completed for existing bicycle, pedestrian and transit infrastructure and services in roughly the same area covered by the Transportation Network Needs Assessment. A sketch planning tool is being used to evaluate the effects of proposed transportation and land use strategies on the transportation network. The results are being used by local governments in Palm Beach and Broward counties to establish MMQOS standards.

Since the 2011 report: CorMAP, a sketch planning tool based on the ArcGIS platform was developed for FDOT District 4 for the SR-7 Corridor study. CorMAP uses input and output files from the travel demand model to calculate VMT and capacity for involving increase transit or walk mode shares, lane reductions, and other scenarios.
Central Office provides guidance on Multimodal Level of Service and provides LOSPLAN software for segment level multimodal level of service analysis.
