• Abstract:
  Currently, the trip generation rates and equations contained in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) ; Trip Generation Manual, 8th Edition are based on the information collected at single-use, free-standing sites and cannot ; be directly applied to multi-use developments. Application of this data for multi-use development sites requires use of ; an adjustment factor called “internal capture rate”, which is expressed as a percent reduction to the trips generated by ; individual land uses. These reductions are applied externally to the site at the entrances, adjacent intersections and ; roadways. They are distinct and separate from “pass-by” and “diverted-link” trips and are applied before “pass-by” and ; “diverted-link” trip reductions are applied. ; While the trip generation rates for individual uses on a multi-use development site may be the same or similar ; to what they are for free-standing sites, there is potential for interaction between among those uses within the site, ; particularly where the trip can be made by walking. As a result, the total generation of vehicle trips entering and ; exiting the multi-use site may be reduced from simply a sum of the individual, discrete trips generated by each land ; use. ; Because the development of mixed-use or multi-use sites is increasingly popular, ITE wishes to increase the ; database on multi-use developments in order to provide internal capture data for a broader range of land uses. ITE ; would appreciate additional data from analyses of such developments. ; The goal of this research project is to establish a local trip generation rate model for multi-use developments in ; state of Kansas, which can potentially be submitted to the ITE headquarter for inclusion in the national database as ; well. ; The primary objectives were to identify several appropriate multi-use development sites in the state and ; document vehicular trip data generated by each site in order to develop a trip generation model that can be used to ; better estimate trip numbers generated by such sites. ; A total of three sites were selected and studied for this project including “Mission Farms” and “Park Place” ; developments, both in Leawood, Kansas; and “Metcalf95 Complex” in Overland Park, Kansas.
