Procedures for estimating park-and-ride demand in large Texas cities. Interim report, September 1983-February 1987
Numerous park-and-ride lots are being developed in Texas. The report develops techniques to estimate the ranges in ridership that will likely occur at park-and-ride lots in large urban areas. The data base employed to develop these techniques uses the experiences of 16 park-and-ride lots in Houston, Texas. Several of these models are then applied to Dallas park-and-ride lots. The demand-estimation techniques presented are intended to be relatively easy and inexpensive to apply and use only data that are readily available for Texas urban areas. These techniques are also developed to estimate the impact of high-occupancy vehicle lanes, also called authorized vehicle lanes, on park-and-ride lot utilization.
