Enhancing Internal Trip Capture Estimation for Mixed-Use Developments

Abstract

This report provides an improved methodology to estimate how many internal trips will be generated in mixed-use developments—trips for which both the origin and destination are within the development. The methodology estimates morning and afternoon peak–period trips to and from six specific land use categories: office, retail, restaurant, residential, cinema, and hotel. The research team analyzed existing data from prior surveys and collected new data at three mixed-use development sites. The resulting methodology is incorporated into a spreadsheet model, which can be downloaded from the TRB website at http://www.trb.org/Main/Blurbs/165014.aspx. The report includes recommendations for modification of existing Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) procedures in the Trip Generation Handbook. This report will be valuable to transportation agency planners and developers who need to provide or fund facilities that meet the transportation demand generated by new developments.
