COMBINED MODELLING OF ACTIVITY AND TRIP PATTERNS: A NEW APPROACH TO THE TRIP GENERATION PROBLEM

Heinz Hautzinger

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

It is common to all trip frequency forecasting models developed up to now that trip frequency is directly related to certain characteristics of the zone, household, and individual respectively. However, in recent years it has become clear that trip-making of individuals can only be explained within the broader context of the individual and household activity pattern. (Jones, 1979). In this paper a new approach to trip frequency modelling is proposed, which explicitly takes account of this. The approach is based on the results of a larger research project on behalf of the German Ministry of Transport. The empirical results quoted refer to a sub-sample of 1755 households selected from the representative Kontiv-survey. (TRRL)
