Preliminary traffic estimate
Preliminary traffic estimate
(OP)
Hi,
I'm looking for publications, by-laws or web-sites on traffic volume before an actual count is done. For example, I'd like to know what is the traffic volume of a particular venue assuming the traffic generation is due to the premise alone. What are the criteria in determining the traffic volume? For example a high school or a mall, what are the factors involved? Is it related to the population, occupancy, total area? built-up area, zoning etc. i.e an emparical formula or tabulated data based on past traffic counts. P/S: I'm looking for ADT & peak hour traffic
thanx
