Long-Distance and Rural Travel Transferable Parameters for Statewide Travel Forecasting Models

Abstract

This guidebook provides transferable parameters for both personal long-distance travel and rural travel for statewide travel models, including applications and limitations. The guide is a supplement to NCHRP Report 716: Travel Demand Forecasting: Parameters and Techniques, which focused on urban travel. The report will be of broad interest to travel demand practitioners at state departments of transportation (DOTs), metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), and consultants developing multistate and national travel forecasting models, statewide and intercity passenger models, and large regional models, especially those covering areas of low-density rural development patterns and undeveloped lands. Areas with a significant proportion of tourist travel will also find this report to be useful in quantifying long-distance travel patterns.
