Projects
We have engaged in a variety of projects to advance this research agenda. Links can be found below:
- We made a comic book! Moving from Cars to People (read online) and (dowload to print) as a part of our project Translating Research Into Comics: A Case Study in Transportation and Land Development
- Passenger and Freight Trip Generation at Multifamily Housing (Portland Bureau of Transportation)
- Trip Generation for Affordable Housing (Caltrans): link to Caltrans Planning Horizons Webinar; Caltrans Planning Horizons Webinar Presentation; Final Report and Executive Summary (only); and California Affordable Housing Trip Generation Tool
- Data Collection Program to Support Transportation System Development Charges (Portland Bureau of Transportation)
- Multimodal Trip Generation, Vehicle Ownership and Use: Characterizing The Travel Patterns of Residents of Multifamily Housing (NITC)
- Data and Methodological Issues in Assessing Transportation Impacts of Urban Development (dissertation by Kristina Currans)
- Understanding Market Segments for Current and Future Residential Location and Travel Choices (Oregon Department of Transportation/OTREC)
- Person-trip Methodology for Transportation System Development Charges (Portland Bureau of Transportation)
