Question

The following socioeconomic data have been collected for the Jeffersonville Transportation Study (JTS).

Population = 72,173

                        Area = 70 square miles

                        Registered Vehicles = 26,685

                        Single-family housing units = 15,675

                        Apartment units = 7567

Retail employment = 5502

Nonretail employment = 27,324

Student attendance = 28,551 by zone of attendance

Average household income = $17,500

Total traffic zones = 129

            The results of the cross-classification analysis are as follows.

                        Total trips produced for study area = 282,150 trips/day

Home-to-work trips 13% (36,680)

Home-to-nonwork trips 62% (174,933)

Non-home trips 25% (70,537)

            The attraction rates for the study area have been developed using the following assumptions.

                        100% of home-to-work trips go to employment locations.

Home-to-nonwork trips are divided into the following types.

Visit friends 10%

Shopping 60%

School 10%

Nonretail employment 20%

Non-home trips are divided into the following types.

Other employment area (nonretail) 60%

Shopping 40%

Determine the number of home-to-work, home-to-nonwork, and nonhome-based trips attracted to a zone with the following characteristics.

Population = 1920

Dwelling units = 800

Retail employment = 50

50 Nonretail employment = 820

School attendance = 0
