Abstract

This paper reports on a study undertaken to develop and evaluate models that could be used to forecast pedestrian circulation. The forecasting models were conceptualized, developed, and tested, but they were not operated in an actual planning context. An origin destination survey (OD) was conducted at Montana State University in 1971 and again in 1973 in an effort to determine student trips on a single day that were to, within, or from the campus. The trips were described according to origin, destination, purpose at end, time at each end, and mode of travel. Person trip generation and distribution models for trips that had at least one end on campus were developed.

METHODologies used in both models and the conclusions derived are given.
