Trip regeneration at shopping complex and applied development of transportation facilities

摘要

Trip generation and trip attraction is important to the traffic engineer and planner inudconsidering the impact of new development in our country. New development leadsudat various impacts to the people's daily life activities. The current boom in shoppingudcentre constructions entails the usage of some shopping centre trip factor. The mainudobjective of this research is to determine these rate trip generation, vehicle volume,udnumber of pedestrian and suggestion to community to use public transport. Sogoudshopping mall has 2 gates (1 and 2), in use for entering and exiting the shoppingudpremises. Proportional vehicle volumes emanating from shopping premises at gate 1udand 2 connect directly to an access one way road. The study further recommendsudmore sample to be gathered using the formulated survey methodology for the result.udThus trip generation manual must be compiled based on local Malaysian conditions,udand the most optimal level for compilation is at national level. In addition, theudexistences of the Malaysian Trip generation Manual encourage uniformity inudpractice. Sogo is located along Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman and Jalan Raja Laut.udTrip generation depends on travel behaviour, which is turn is localized and mayuddiffer from place to place. The most typical time for shopping on the weekday isudparticular 12 to 2pm during lunch hour andud5udto 7pm after work on Fridays attractsudthe most number of customers on a weekday. In addition Saturday and Sundays areudvery busy periods for shopping centres having a supermarket and discount stores. Itudis also affect the level of trip chaining phenomenon in the estimation rate includeudparking not provide adequately, so congestion occurring at that shopping centre.udThus trip generation manual must be compiled based on local Malaysian conditions,udand the most optimal level for compilation is at national level. In addition, theudexistences of the Malaysian Trip generation Manual encourage uniformity in udpractice.
