Abstract:

There is currently limited data on urban, multimodal trip generation at the individual site level. This lack of ; data limits the ability of transportation agencies to assess development impacts on the transportation system ; in urban and multimodal contexts. This project sought to begin addressing this gap by developing and testing ; a protocol for collecting trip generation by mode at the site level. ; The report provides a comprehensive review of previous research and develops and defines a data collection ; protocol for site and context data. The report documents the results of a pilot data collection that tests the ; protocol. The results of the pilot data collection are compared to the predicted impacts based on the industry ; standard, the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, and to six alternative ; methods, all of which pivot from ITE’s data. None of the existing methods reliably predict the field data. The ; report identifies next steps for DDOT and other agencies to take to improve multimodal trip generation ; estimation. To that end, a field-guide for future data collection, based on this pilot, is included as an appendix.
