• Abstract:
  In collaboration with its regional and citizen planning partners, the California Department of Transportation is currently developing a long-term, multimodal transportation plan for the state of California. The California Travel Trends and Demographics study was designed to support the data requirements of the statewide plan. The purpose of this project is to enable the State to develop overall policy to accommodate future statewide trends. The research did not include identifying transportation infrastructure needs for specific geographical areas or transportation corridors. The purpose of this project was to provide high-quality population forecasts with substantial geographic and demographic detail, and to understand how demographic and land use changes in the state will affect future travel demand. The research effort for this projection consisted of six stages: a review of relevant literature background information, data collection, population projections, GIS mapping and development, empirical demand modeling, and travel forecasts. 8 Appendices, 12 figures, 53 maps, 36 tables; 206 p.
