Download or read book Manual for the Interactive Training System for Texas Travel Models written by George B. Dresser and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Texas Package of travel demand forecasting programs is a mainframe mathematical model for forecasting travel in urban areas in the state of Texas. Interactive Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet templates have been developed to provide case study examples of the mathematical functions used in the Texas Package. This manual is intended for use by the Texas Department of Transportation offices, Metropolitan Planning Organizations, municipalities, counties, and consultants contracted by public agencies in the state of Texas for training employees in the theory and application of the Texas Package travel demand forecasting model. The information contained in the Lotus 1-2-3 modules can be used to train new staff members or to refresh employees who have been minimally exposed to the travel demand forecasting process. The models and formulas contained in the spreadsheet templates are not solely applicable to the Texas models but are examples of standard travel modeling practices used in other states as well.

Download or read book Travel Forecasting Guidelines written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Implementing transportation improvements requires a significant effort that may involve several levels of planning; social, economic and environmental documentation; geometric and structural design; operations analysis; signalized intersection design; and/or pavement design. Accurate and timely traffic estimates and forecasts are basic to the entire transportation planning process and are essential to enable the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to effectively meet the mobility needs of the state. This guide provides an introduction to the transportation planning and travel demand forecasting requirements and establishes the policies, processes and methodologies for developing traffic forecasts for the various stages of TxDOT project development.

Download or read book Texas Travel Forecasting Annotated Bibliography written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bibliography is part of an on-going research project between the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). The bibliography has attempted to include all significant reports prepared by the Institute in support of urban transportation travel demand modeling and forecasting practice in Texas. An annotation is provided for those reports which still may be of interest to practitioners. Several reports which are now obsolete due to improvements in computer technology are included for completeness and historical interest. In addition several reports prepared by TxDOT which bear directly on travel demand modeling practice are included. The Department reports are not complete and users of this bibliography are requested to provide the Institute with copies of Department reports not presently included so that they may be included in future revisions. The bibliography is organized into six sections: trip generation, trip distribution, traffic assignment, travel surveys, air quality analysis, and overview. Reports are placed in each section according to the phase of modeling covered by the report. However, since the modeling phases are interdependent, most reports will cover aspects of more than one phase. Reports which clearly cover more than one modeling phase are placed in the overview section.

Download or read book Texas TRANPLAN Applications Guide 1995 written by George B. Dresser and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRANPLAN is a package of separate, distinct programs which perform travel demand analysis. TRANPLAN can be used to perform the traditional four-step transportation forecasting process: trip generation, trip distribution, mode choice, and traffic assignment. This guide is intended for use by the Texas Department of Transportation offices, Metropolitan Planning Organizations, municipalities, counties, and consultants contracted by public agencies in the state of Texas. The guide should be used in conjunction with the TRANPLAN reference manual and the Highway Network Information Systems (HNIS) reference manual. The information in this manual can be used to train new TRANPLAN users, refresh users who have been minimally exposed to TRANPLAN, and serve as a "template" to aid experienced users. This guide, however, is not intended to provide a comprehensive description of all the capabilities of the TRANPLAN software

Download or read book Future Travel Demand and Its Implications for Transportation Infrastructure Investments in the Texas Triangle written by Ming Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study takes a megaregion approach to project future travel demand and choice of transport modes in the Texas Triangle, which is encompassed by four major metropolitan areas, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Austin. The model was developed based on three behavioral characteristics of human travel. First, as income grows, demand for more and faster mobility increases. Second, on average, individuals allocate 1-1.5 hours per capita per day for travel. Third, people allocate 10-15% of per capita personal income for transportation related expenses. Measured by person-kilometers of travel (PKT), the total mobility demand in the Triangle region is projected to grow nearly four times from 480 billion in year 2000 to 1.8 trillion in year 2050. Per capita PKT is expected to increase from 32,700 to 61,000 for the same time period. The projections show that more than 70% of the year 2050 travel demand likely comes from high-speed travel at 600 km per hour. The study results call for serious consideration of investing in high-speed travel in the form of High Speed Rail (HSP) now in order to accommodate the future travel demand in the Triangle Region.
