Base year travel demand : Transport Planning Process
#1

The Transport Planning Process is a sub system responding-to the social and economic forces that exist in an urban area. In Urban Transport Planning, the input magnitudes and the behavior of the system is estimated normally through the use of a four phase process of travel demand forecasting. The major components of travel behavior are:
• The decision to travel for a given purpose - Trip Generation
• The choice of destination - Trip Distribution
• The choice of travel mode - Modal Split
• The choice of Route - Trip Assignment

In this process, the outputs of each step become inputs to the following step, which also takes relevant inputs from the land use and . socio economic projections. .One of the principle components in the transport planning process is modeling the relationship between travel demand and land use and socio-economic parameters.
Conventionally a four stage urban transport planning system (UTPS) approach is widely used in transport planning studies. In the present study an advanced transport planning software - TRIPPS has been used to carry out the travel demand modeling exercise. The four stages of UTPS are:- 

• Trip Generation
• Trip Distribution
• Modal Split
• Trip Assignment
