| Abstract | ||
| In the UK, TRICS is a national trip generation databases and system. It is recommended to be used in quantifying traffic impacts of new residential developments. Thus, any enhancement in its methodology will positively influence the transport assessment process. This paper has three objectives; first, to examine the possibility of proposing new statistically-proven grouping for the TRICS residential land use subcategories. The second objective is to use the proposed grouping to construct parsimonious models for home-based trip production that can aid in quantifying traffic impact assessment. The third objective is to examine the validity of the developed models against two of the most internationally recognised trip information systems; the UK TRICS and the US ITE Trip Generation Manual. The statistical analysis ended up with new more accurate grouping where based on it eight trip production model were built. The developed models were found to be practical and rigorous. | ||
