摘要：	There is a widespread belief that the available tools for estimating travel demand from urban development are not as accurate as they could be, particularly at the individual site level. The implications are that cities may be hindered in developing appropriate travel impact mitigations; that cities lack good information to communicate to existing residents regarding potential travel impacts of proposed development; and that cities, with better tools, would be able to make stronger policy based on more reliable understandings of travel demand and development impacts. To address this concern, the District Department of Transportation (DDOT) has undertaken an initiative to improve the agency's understanding of urban, multimodal trip generation in Washington, D.C. DDOT is interested in the question of how trip generation is shaped by the relationship between land use and transportation infrastructure in heavily urbanized areas. The ultimate objective of the larger effort is to develop a better suite of tools to understand development impacts so that appropriate mitigations can be made. The project documented here represents the intermediate step of developing a field-tested data collection methodology that captures multimodal trip-making behavior at the building level. Better data is critical to developing a better process.
