Abstract:

The Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) in the Austin, TX region is incorporating

a new regional growth concept, the Activity Centers for its Long-Range Transportation Plan. The planned

Activity Centers would present such features as mixed uses, medium to high densities, and pedestrianfriendly

environmental design, which are expected to influence travel. This study reports the needed local

empirical evidence of trip making behavior in association with the Activity Centers’ attributes. From

telephone interviews of local planners and work sessions with experts, the study identifies 42 mixed-use

districts (MXDs) in the Austin area. In GIS, urban form indicators are derived for the MXDs and trip

records from the 2005 Austin Activity Travel Survey are geocoded. The following analyses are then carried

out for the MXD related travel: trip length distribution, trip generation rates and internal rate of capture,

person miles of travel, vehicle ownership, departure time, and travel mode choice. With the empirical

results, CAMPO models can be modified or refined to capture the potential effects of the Activity Centers

growth strategy on regional travel.
