Example 2 (Trip Distribution-Average Factor Method) Diagram below show the existing travel pattern for four (4) zones. Distribute the trip using: i.
Average factor method
Future Trip Production:
Present Trip Production
P1 = 50, P2 = 70, P3 = 30, P4 = 35
P1 = 23, P2 = 17, P3 = 20, P4 = 20
Future Trip Attraction:
Present Trip Attraction
A1 = 35, A2 = 60, A3 = 50, A4 = 40
A1 = 20, A2 = 17, A3 = 21, A4 = 22
Solution: Average Factor Method Zone 1 Fp1
= 50/23
Zone 2 Fp2
= 2.1739 Fa1
= 35/20 = 1.7500
= 70/17 = 4.1176
Fa2
= 60/17 = 3.5294
Zone 3 Fp3
= 30/20
Zone 4 Fp4
= 1.5000 Fa3
= 35/20 = 1.7500
= 50/21
Fa4
= 2.3810
= 40/22 = 1.8182
