Given that a zone has 200 households with car and 200 households without car and the average trip generation rates for each groups are respectively 4.0 and 2 trips per day. Assuming that in the future, all household will have a car, find the growth factor and future trips from that zone, assuming that the population and income remains constant.

A large residential area has 1500 households with an average household income of $15,000, an average household size of 5.2, and, on the average, 1.2 working members. Using the model below, predict the change in the number of peak-hour social/recreational trips if employment in the area increased by 20% and household income by 10%. number of peak-hour vehicle-based social/recreational trips per household = 0.04 + 0.018(household size) + 0.009(annual household income [in thousands of dollars]) + 0.16(number of nonworking household members) Round off final answers to whole number.

A model for non-work related trips has been developed by the Texas Department of Transportation for Wheeler, Texas. The model is based on the number of trips per household: Number of peak-hour vehicle-based social trips per household = 0.04+0.018*(household size) + 0.009*(annual household income in thousands of dollars) + 0.16*(number of nonworking household members) For the northeast section of Wheeler, the average household has six members and an annual income of $50,000. If each household has one working member, how many peak-hour social trips are predicted?

Two routes connect a city and suburb. During the peak-hour morning commute, a total of 5000 vehicles travel from the suburb to the city. Route 1 has a 50km/hr speed limit and 5km in length, Route 2 has a 55km/hr speed limit and 4 km in length. Studies show that the total travel time on route 1 increases 2 mins for every extra 500 vehicles added. Mins of travel time on route 2 increase with the square of the no. of vehicles expressed in 000’s. Determine user equilibrium travel times.
How to improve and lessen heavy congestion, air traffic, and sea transportation?
Two routes connect an origin-destination pair with performance functions t₁ = 5 + (x₁/2)² and t₂ = 7+ (x2/4)² (with t's in minutes and x's in thousands of vehicles per hour). It is known that at user equilibrium, 75% of the origin-destination demand takes route 1. What percentage would take route 1 if a system-optimal solution were achieved, and how much travel time would be saved?
