• Abstract:
  Internal trip capture refers to how the number trips to and from a development are reduced by the proximity of
  
  complementary land uses within the development (e.g., residential to retail). Internal trips occur within the
  
  development and do not encumber the traffic flow on the public roadways connecting the development with the
  
  transportation network. Internal trip capture rates are used to estimate trip generation on mixed-use developments by
  
  adjusting the single land use estimates. These single land use estimates tend to overestimate the trip generation
  
  behavior for mixed-use developments. Accurate internal trip capture rate estimates and methodologies are necessary
  
  to improve the trip generation estimates for mixed-use developments. Nationwide, there have been efforts to enhance
  
  both the data availability and estimation methodologies to estimate internal trip capture rates. In this project, internal
  
  trip capture data from four mixed-use developments in Florida were collected and analyzed using a recently-enhanced
  
  internal trip capture methodology developed by the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP). Results
  
  showed that the enhanced methodology produced generally more accurate estimates than those from the traditional
  
  ITE internal trip capture procedure. In the NCHRP methodology, the maximum unconstrained internal trip capture rates
  
  from land use pairs are chosen in mixed-use developments. Data collected in this project can potentially contribute with
  
  33 percent of these unconstrained internal trip capture rates used in the enhanced methodology for internal trip
  
  capture estimation. A series of prediction tests was developed to assess the contribution of the unconstrained internal
  
  trip capture rates supplied by this study to the accuracy of the trip generation estimates. It was found that the use of
  
  the revised unconstrained internal trip capture rates based on the combined NCHRP and FDOT data improved the
  
  prediction capability in five out of eight test cases, with one test case tied. In addition to internal trip capture
  
  estimates, this project also collected transportation mode and internal trip length information. Guidance for improving
  
  the data collection process and estimation are also provided.
