Study Area Trip Distribution Method for Traffic Analyses

The purpose of this article is to provide a resource to explain the study area trip distribution method for traffic impact analyses. Based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) Transportation and Land Development, 2nd Edition, trip distribution is defined as “the percentage of directional distribution of the total site traffic onto the major approach routes to the proposed study site,” while the analogy method “uses the directional distribution of traffic generated by another similar development in the immediate vicinity of the site under study” to create a trip distribution for use in the traffic impact analysis.
