• Abstract:
  In recent years, there has been increasing interest in the ability of travel demand models to estimate travel not only for the average weekday, but for different periods within the day. Travel demand models are increasingly required to be analysis tools for a broad range of issues on transportation policy and project alternatives. These issues often require detailed analysis, not only spatially, but temporally as well. This report provides documentation on methods used in U.S. urban areas to handle the issue of time of day in their travel demand models. Commonly used practices are described, the most innovative methods used by metropolitan planning organizations and states are documented, and emerging approaches are described as well.
