Traffic Forecasts estimating potential commercial truck traffic for the Bridge, and the associated toll revenues, were produced by PROLOG Canada Inc., a Calgary-based consulting firm. Forecasts were produced in 2002, and again in 2006. 35-year estimates of commercial traffic and tonnage were produced in two scenarios; a "Conservative" forecast and a "Probable" forecast, based on different assumptions of mining and other economic activity.
As a note, while some of the forecast tables mention "one-way trips", and the tonnage figures are northbound, the "Trucks" numbers are actually two-way totals. You need to divide them in half to get the number of one-way trips (as mentioned in Appendix 13 of the Developer's Assessment Report from 2004. Raspberries to PROLOG for the confusion!
