And I just want to talk about some of the nomenclature you might hear when, or you will hear because I'm going to be saying it when we're working with traffic simulation and analysis in InfraWorks. Now notice we've got our traffic study area. That's sort of this rectangle that we clicked and drew. Now, these blue boxes over here, these are what we call demand zones and they show up whenever an eligible road gets crossed by our traffic study area. So notice over here and over here we have component roads crossing our traffic study area. So it creates a demand zone. Notice over here, all the way over here, it's crossing planning roads. Now we know that planning roads are not used within traffic simulation. So it has not created a demand zone there even though we have included them within our…
