Title: Evaluation of Walk and Bicycle Demand Modeling Practice
Accession Number: 01724188
Record Type: Monograph
Abstract: This project is an extension to previous NCHRP project 08-78 (NCHRP Report 770) “Estimating Bicycling and Walking for Planning and Project Development: A Guidebook.” Since the release of NCHRP Report 770 in 2014, the number of agencies using advanced methods to predict bicycling and walking demand has continued to grow. The methods range from enhanced activity-based models to more traditional trip-based models. The purpose of this project is to evaluate the current state of research and practice in regional pedestrian and bicycle demand modeling for both commute and non-commute trips by regional metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) and state departments of transportation (DOTs) across the United States (US). The overall state-of-the-practice is surveyed and summarized, then compared to the state-of-the-art, as determined from recent academic literature and the most advanced recent or ongoing agency modeling projects. Gaps between common practice and the more advanced approaches are identified and communicated to practitioners, with an emphasis on what will be needed for agencies to address those gaps, in terms of data, expertise, and resources.
