Abstract
An efficient transportation system and infrastructure is necessary for the growth and development of economy of a nation. Transportation planning plays a vital role in improving the transportation system, which includes identifying the travel demand and implementing plans accordingly. Trip based approach and tour based modeling were the methods used for travel demand modeling. Activity based modeling is the latest trend in travel demand forecasting which considers activity based tour chains as the individual unit of analysis. This study attempts to develop an activity based travel demand model for Thiruvananthapuram urban area, taking into consideration the socio-economic characteristics and travel pattern. The model includes a single activity based tour generation model and mode choice model. The multinomial logit model was adopted for generating the models.
