From page 37...
... 37 The research team concludes that the fundamental approach of adjusting baseline ITE trip generation data with factors derived from empirical data, or with factors extracted from HTSs, is logical and intuitive to users and can be a useful tool for estimating trip generation in traffic impact analyses of urban infill development. This conclusion is despite the fact that there were insufficient study sites to validate the proposed methodology or draw definitive conclusions on the accuracy of the method's estimates of infill trip generation.
From page 38...
... 38 The research team is confident the recommended method will be accepted by the profession due to the following reasons: • The overall approach and methodological variations for obtaining data are compatible with the current practice of preparing impact studies and do not require a significant shift in paradigm to use. • The method is simple in its structure, transparent in its computations, and intuitive to the user familiar with preparing impact studies.
From page 39...
... 39 • Vehicle occupancy of at least 25% to 50% of the automobiles accessing the site during the survey period (collection of enough vehicle occupancy data to ensure adequate data are available for each hour of the survey period)
