ITE Trip Generation Manual data are primarily from single-use, standalone, suburban sites and provide limited understanding of trip generation characteristics at sites in settings that enable and support walk, bicycle, transit, and shared-ride trips. In many suburban settings, only a small percentage of site-generated trips are as a pedestrian, bicyclist, or transit patron. There are exceptions, of course. A residential site near a suburban rail transit station can have a significant number of persons walking between the site and transit station. For a site situated within a suburban mixed-use development, there are walk trips between complementary uses and buildings. The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) recognizes the need to move toward urban, person-based trip generation. The PIE Urban Trip Generation Panel has been constituted to guide ITE's efforts to develop appropriate urban trip generation products, as we have for many years with suburban data. As this article points out, efforts to date provide insights on both the potential and the challenges in doing so.
