In 2022, the Florida Transportation Builder’s Association (FTBA) worked with Urban SDK to evaluate evacuation trends related to flows in the wake of Hurricane Ian, which made landfall in South Florida, September 2022.

We studied Hurricane Ian Evacuation Distribution from Charlotte, Collier, and Lee Counties between September 25-28, 2022. The analysis identified that many external trips from affected areas were concentrated along the I-75 corridor in Sarasota (16%), Tampa (13%), and Miami (19%), whereas communities with indirect access to a major highway were less popular.

For the study, Urban SDK’s platform was used map and pull insights into origin-destination data for analysis.
