Area Based Freight Trip Generation Models

The paper introduces a set of area based freight trip generation (FTG) models. In addition, the paper assesses the performance of the area and with employment based FTG models estimated by the authors in previous studies. The paper uses two samples of trip generation data from receiver and carrier companies in New York and New Jersey, collected in 2006 and 2012, to conduct external validation of the models. In addition, the paper explores the use of different definitions of area, such as building, commercial, retail and office for FTG modeling.
