Development of a methodology to interface transportation planning and traffic simulation
… is to develop a methodology to interface transportation planning and traffic simulation. Differences in representations of planning and traffic networks prohibits planners and engineers from sharing the input data for the same area being studied. Therefore the planning data need to be …

An analysis of residential trip generation in Cape Town
… of the factors contributing to the growth of a 'transportation problem' in Cape Town are outlined, and the main trends are illustrated. A brief introduction to the Urban Transportation Planning Process is presented, and the importance of the trip generation sub-model within the conventional …

Use of Advanced Techniques to Estimate Zonal Level Safety Planning Models and Examine their Temporal Transferability
Historically, the traditional planning process has not given much attention to the road safety evaluation of development plans. To make an informed, defensible, and proactive choice between alternative plans and their safety implications, it is necessary to have a procedure for estimating and …

Methodology for evaluating transportation-induced regional development
… benefits and the environmental impacts of transportation investments and policies through rational, objective scientific analysis. This research aims to develop a methodology, termed the Transportation/Development Methodology, for evaluating transportation policies and projects, and also, …

Driven to congestion : how the planning, engineering and politics of transportation established, preserves and perpetuates the automobile city
The last eight decades of urban transportation planning and engineering in the United States have been dominated by the hegemony of the automobile. Auto-oriented planning of the transportation and land use system has had a profound impact on the built environment both in greenfield developments and …

Expanding transportation planning capacity in cities of the global South : public-private collaboration and conflict in Chile and Mexico
… resources and weak institutions to enhance their transportation planning and regulatory capacities so as to provide the public with cleaner, safer, efficient, and reliable public transit alternatives? Such aims are particularly challenging for cities of the developing world, not just because of …
-
Integrated Model to Plan Advanced Public Transportation Systems
… of this study is to develop an integrated public transportation planning framework to evaluate and plan Advanced Public Transportation Systems (APTS). With this purpose, a systems approach point of view is adopted to study the influence of new APTS technology in supply and demand transit …

Travel demand modeling for developing countries
The transportation planning process or travel demand forecasting process which is most commonly used at present, called the Urban Transportation Planning Process (UTPP), has its origins in studies performed about three decades ago in urban areas in the United States. This conventional planning …

Analysis and Evaluation of Household Pick-up and Gathering Behavior in No-Notice Evacuations
… this behavior has rarely been integrated with transportation simulation models of evacuation conditions. As shown through this work, such omissions generate overly optimistic network performance. Acknowledging the behavior also leads to potential network improvements by moving dependents …

Reasoning for Public Transportation Systems Planning: Use of Dempster-Shafer Theory of Evidence
Policy-makers of today's public transportation investment projects engage in debates in which the reasonableness and clarity of their judgment are tested many times. How to recommend the transportation system that achieves project's goals and different stakeholders' needs in a most logical and …

Enhancements to Transportation Analysis and Simulation Systems
Urban travel demand forecasting and traffic assignment models are important tools in developing transportation plans for a metropolitan area. These tools provide forecasts of urban travel patterns under various transportation supply conditions. The predicted travel patterns then provide useful …
