Traffic Flow Forecasting Based on Land-Use Planning

Abstract:

At present, Chinas urbanization is developing rapidly. Traffic construction is helpful to the development of urbanization, and traffic flow forecasting can provide guidance for traffic construction. The basic data that traffic flow forecasting needs relies on social and economic statistics, like population, number of jobs and so on. In areas where the level of urbanization is low, social and economic statistics is always unavailable. As for this, the paper proposed a model that using land-use planning to forecast the traffic flow. First we calculated peak hourly person times by multiplying acreage of traffic zones with peak hourly trip rate, then got trip generation and attraction of traffic zones which is basic data of traffic flow forecasting after appropriate conversion. The case study proved that the model is scientific and rational.
