Travel Demand Models

Travel Demand Models are tools used to predict how people will choose to travel in a given area. These models analyze factors like population size, income, land use, and public transportation options to estimate the number of trips people will make, the modes of transportation they will use (like cars, buses, or walking), and the routes they will take. Planners use this information to improve transportation systems, reduce congestion, and enhance overall mobility, ensuring that infrastructure meets the needs of the community effectively.
