Trip Distribution
Trip distribution is a process used in transportation planning to estimate how many trips will be made between different locations in an area, such as neighborhoods or cities. It helps understand where people are likely to travel for work, shopping, or leisure. By analyzing factors like population density, land use, and distance, planners can predict the origin (where trips start) and destination (where trips end) of these trips. This information is crucial for designing effective transportation systems, improving roads and public transit, and creating policies that meet the mobility needs of communities.
