Questions and Answers

What is the primary purpose of estimating trip generation rates in travel demand modeling?

  • To determine the aggregate number of trips generated in or attracted to an area (correct)
  • To predict the exact routes traveled by each individual
  • To analyze the environmental impact of each trip
  • To calculate the exact time each trip will take

How does trip generation contribute to the prediction of travel demand?

  • By providing detailed demographic information
  • By predicting the exact number of traffic accidents in a zone
  • By determining the cost of public transportation
  • By establishing a link between land use and travel (correct)

What is the significance of balancing the values of trip generation and attractions in travel demand analysis?

  • To create an equitable distribution of trips among different zones (correct)
  • To reduce the overall carbon footprint of travel
  • To ensure that every individual has an equal opportunity to travel
  • To increase the number of trips for economic growth
