FINAL REPORT FOR SAN JUAN TRANSPORTATION PLANNING MODELS

The development, calibration and validation of travel demand models for the San Juan metropolitan area are described in this report which does not deal with data processing considerations. The user manual, also developed as part of this study, is a companion volume, explaining the application of travel demand models. The models are developed with the Urban Transportation Planning System (UTPS) programs. The models also contain a program from FHWA's PLANPAC battery, and a few IBM utility programs. Several special-purpose Fortran programs were used to prepare, manipulate and analyze data during calibration. Analysis using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) were run. Trip generation modeling was aimed at developing a cross-classification procedure for estimating trip-production and procedures for estimating trip attractions that were not tied to a specific zone structure. These procedures are intended to give accurate estimates of trip-making in San Juan.
