Book Description
This document represents the technical appendix to the main report of NCHRP Project 8-37, published as NCHRP Report 571: "Standardized Procedures for Personal Travel Surveys." It contains chapters that elaborate on and provide background to the main report. Chapter 1 provides an introduction. Chapter 2 is a summary of the literature reviewed for this project and provides useful background on the state of the practice in household and personal travel surveys, definition and application of standards to surveys in the social and marketing sciences, and other related issues. Chapter 3 provides a brief review of the process that was used to determine what issues would be covered in this research, and how these were then classified. Chapters 4 through 10 provide the detailed background for the standardized procedures that are proposed in the main report. Chapter 11 provides the references that are used in this technical appendix. Each of chapters 4 through 10 are organized to provide a brief definition of the topic, background, or introduction at the outset, followed by a discussion of the research and reviews that were undertaken. Recommendations for adoption of standardized procedures, or for guidelines are not provided in these chapters, because they are to be found in the main report. A cross reference to the main report is provided, however, at the end of each section.

Book Description
A multi-disciplinary approach to transportation planningfundamentals The Transportation Planning Handbook is a comprehensive,practice-oriented reference that presents the fundamental conceptsof transportation planning alongside proven techniques. This newfourth edition is more strongly focused on serving the needs of allusers, the role of safety in the planning process, andtransportation planning in the context of societal concerns,including the development of more sustainable transportationsolutions. The content structure has been redesigned with a newformat that promotes a more functionally driven multimodal approachto planning, design, and implementation, including guidance towardthe latest tools and technology. The material has been updated toreflect the latest changes to major transportation resources suchas the HCM, MUTCD, HSM, and more, including the most current ADAaccessibility regulations. Transportation planning has historically followed the rationalplanning model of defining objectives, identifying problems,generating and evaluating alternatives, and developing plans.Planners are increasingly expected to adopt a moremulti-disciplinary approach, especially in light of the risingimportance of sustainability and environmental concerns. This bookpresents the fundamentals of transportation planning in amultidisciplinary context, giving readers a practical reference forday-to-day answers. Serve the needs of all users Incorporate safety into the planning process Examine the latest transportation planning softwarepackages Get up to date on the latest standards, recommendations, andcodes Developed by The Institute of Transportation Engineers, thisbook is the culmination of over seventy years of transportationplanning solutions, fully updated to reflect the needs of achanging society.
