Scope

What is the current trip rate (# personal trips/time unit) within the Helsinki metropolitan area (Greater Helsinki) ([[en:Helsinki Metropolitan Area|HMA) from one are to another on a typical workday? This includes all modes of transportation, including private car, bus, train, tram, metro, bike, walk, and composite traffic.

Definition

The indices currently used are

  • Hma_area.
    • Hma_area is used as two sub-dimensions: the origin and the destination of a trip.
  • Time index for time of day at 0.2 h time intervals: 0, 0.2, 0.4,... 23.8.

Data

The Helsinki Metropolitan Area Council has performed detailed trip analyses in the area. They have estimated total number of trips and the distribution between defined regions. [1] [2]

The population size and the amounts of workplaces was based on the statistics by the Helsinki Metropolitan Area Council [3]. [4]

The distribution of trips along the day is based on Expolis data[5].

The current estimate is adjusted to the total number of private car trips, and therefore it reflects only a part of the trips within the scope of this variable.

Dependencies

None defined.

Formula

The formula is defined as an Analytica model file. The computation is based on disaggregation of the total trip number according to the data described above.
