Abstract:Gas prices and fossil fuel concerns have promoted
reduced car use. More people are seeking
housing within a walk, bike, or shorter drive of
important destinations, leading to more mixed
use developments (MXD) with internal retail sites,
reducing use of roads outside the MXD. In addition
to fuel, environment, health, and convenience
considerations of MXDs, traffic is reduced on local
roads, making them safer and more efficient.
Internal trip capture (ITC) refers to the reduced
trips to and from a development resulting from
complementary land uses within it. Internal
trips relieve traffic on roadways connecting the
development with the transportation network.
ITC rates improve trip generation estimates on
MXDs by adjusting single land-use estimates,
which tend to overestimate trip generation for
MXDs, creating a need for more accurate ITC
rates and methodologies. Nationwide, there have
been efforts to enhance both data availability and
methodologies to estimate ITC rates.
