The research investigated a methodology for specialized trip generation studies. Automobile trips to outdoor recreational facilities in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area comprised a case study. A literature search was made on methodological improvements in metropolitan outdoor recreational planning. Modeling techniques used in transportation planning were applied to this problem, to develop procedures useful to both transportation and recreational planners. License plate survey data for trips to selected regional parks in the Washington, D.C area were utilized. Socio-economic and transportation facility data from a recent home interview transportation survey for the same area were also employed. (Author)
