INTRODUCTION TO URBAN TRAVEL DEMAND FORECASTING: CLASS NOTES

Suzannah Rutherford, J Barnes, J Schickman

Abstract

Travel Demand Forecasting (TDF) is a tool used to support the planning process. In general, TDF attempts to quantify the demand and characteristics of travel on the transportation system in the present and future. It consists of analytic techniques that predict future travel demand based on land use, socioeconomic, and transportation system characteristics. This report provides a training manual appropriate for short courses and a graduate class in travel demand forecasting. Instructor materials keyed to the manual are also provided with materials available on computers for classroom projection.
