Title: INTERCITY TRAFFIC PROJECTIONS
Accession Number: 00240970
Record Type: Component
Abstract: THE PROJECTION OF INTERCITY HIGHWAY TRAVEL WAS MADE AS A PART OF THE HIGHWAY NEEDS AND FISCAL STUDIES PREPARED FOR THE STATES OF ARIZONA AND ILLINOIS. THE PROJECTIONS PROVIDED INFORMATION FOR DEVELOPMENT OF FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION SYSTEMS OF STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. ALSO, THE TRAFFIC VOLUMES AND TRIP LENGTH DATA WERE UTILIZED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF FUTURE PHYSICAL NEEDS OF THE VARIOUS FACILITIES. IN EACH STATE BASIC ORIGIN-DESTINATION DATA WERE AVAILABLE. HOWEVER, DIFFERENT TYPES OF ANALYSES WERE REQUIRED TO DEVELOP THE CURRENT YEAR TRIP MATRIX. GENERATION-DISTRIBUTION EQUATIONS WERE DEVELOPED AND APPLIED TO ASCERTAIN EXISTING AND FUTURE TRIP INTERCHANGES. THE BASIC PROCEDURES UTILIZED IN THE TWO STATES ARE PRESENTED. THE BASIC PROJECTION PROCEDURE INVOLVED APPLICATIONS OF GROWTH FACTORS WHICH REFLECTED ANTICIPATED INCREASES IN POPULATION, VEHICLE REGISTRATION, AND RECREATIONAL AREA VISITATION.
