• Abstract:
  This report presents the findings of an evaluation of the Department's need for a mode share estimating capability. The report documents the process to develop a standard/basic mathematical model for estimating transit riders in an urban area. The model was developed using data from San Antonio, Texas, and is operational using standard TRANPLAN programs on a personal computer using MS/DOS. This model will serve as the starting point for customizing a transit rider forecasting model for individual urban areas in Texas. The model developed is considered potentially applicable for home-based work trips for mid-sized cities, smaller than Dallas and larger than 200,000.
