Norman W. Garrick Using TG Manual without Correction Estimated number of trip ends = 24,600 ITE Trip Generation Manual Proposed size of project
15
Norman W. Garrick Using TG Manual with Correction for Mixed Use Estimated number of trip ends = 15,900 It is very important to remember that this total includes walking, biking and transit trips Not just car trips

360 State, New Haven Trip Generation
17
360 State, New Haven trip Generation over predict trips The 360 State Street was estimated to produce 674 PM peak hour vehicle trips Requiring the construction of 500 parking spaces Live monitoring shows only 116 trips (17% of what was predicted) - Mixed Use Trip Generation Model (New Haven and SCRCOG)

LOS, Volume Capacity Sample Calculation A two lane urban street has an ADT of 20,000 vehicles per day. Estimate what fraction of the year this street will operate at i) LOS E, ii) LOS D. Do this calculation for directional splits of 50% and 60%. The hourly volume distribution and the design hour service volumes are given on the following sheets.
