The major thrust of urbanization in India is on metropolitan cities due to their acquired status of growth magnets providing ample employment opportunities. This has resulted in simultaneous densification and expansion in spatial dimension effecting changes in the socio economic characteristics of city households, land use and travel pattern. Eventually the impact has been on urban trip rates with respect to the socio - economic stratification of urban society. The present paper displays trip rate pattern in an Indian metropolitan city of Surat in Gujarat state. The study highlights trip rate patterns for different travel purposes and modes under the influence of socio - economic characteristics with reference to city geography.
