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?
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?
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
