# Data Driven PHB Ranking

Created for Arterial Management - Austin Transportation Department

## Criteria Point Breakdown :100:&#x20;

The Criteria Ranking Score is based on the Total Rank Score of 100 points, which is broken down into 3 Sections: Demand, Risk, and Safety. Each Section has a set number of Categories with specific point breakdowns, depending on the data being measured. The list below breaks down the Categories by Section, providing details on point structure.
