Special Events Travel Surveys and Model Development
2012 Innovations in Travel Modeling Conference
May 2, 2012
Arun Kuppam, Rachel Copperman, Jason Lemp, Tom Rossi, Lavanya Vallabhaneni, Vladimir Livshits, Ted Brown, Kyunghwi Jeon
Heavy utilization of LRT by special events patrons
Background
2
LRT intercept survey indicated non-commute trips during off-peak hours and weekends
MAG travel model does not account for weekend and special events travel
LRT Ridership numbers exceeded forecasts
New LRT opened in early 2009 in Phoenix
Project supported by FTA 5339 funds
Project Objectives
3
Integrate SEM with FTA’s Summit Develop Stand
alone Special Events Model (SEM)
Conduct Special Event Surveys
Special Event Classification

Model Overview
Base Year
Forecast Year
Predicts the number of person trips traveling to and from special events
Person trips = attendance at the event
Person trips = minimum { Base Year Attendance * Growth Rate, Venue Capacity }
Time-of-Day
15
Set Start and End Time Events
Continuous Start and End Time Events
Time-of-Day Aggregated to Four Time Periods
• Arrival time distributed between 0-3 hours before event start time, and up to 0.5 hours after start time
• Departure time distributed between 0-1 hour before event end time, and up to 0.5 hours after end time
• Arrival time is distributed uniformly between the event start time and 3 hours before the event end time
• Departure time is determined based on arrival time and event duration with all event attendees leaving at or before the event end time

Three models were estimated – • Home • Hotel • Work and other
Multinomial logit
• Home: number of HBNW trips produced in a zone (from regular travel model)
• Hotel: hotel employment • Work and other: HBW attractions
(from regular travel model)
• Distance from TAZ to event • Land use at origin • Mode choice logsum

Conclusions
Special events trips constitute a large share of LRT ridership
Gate counts by time period very critical in developing expansion factors
SEM, designed as a stand-alone model, easily integrated with regional model
SEM predicts special event trips for any future event or groups of events
SEM, integrated with SUMMIT, can be used to evaluate transit benefits
