GUJARAT TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY
BE - SEMESTER ?VI(NEW) ? EXAMINATION ? SUMMER 2019
Subject Code:2160608 Date:27/05/2019
Subject Name:Urban Transportation system
Time:10:30 AM TO 01:00 PM Total Marks: 70
Instructions:
1. Attempt all questions.
2. Make suitable assumptions wherever necessary.
3. Figures to the right indicate full marks.
Q.1 (a) Define ?urban areas? and ?Rural areas? 03
(b) What is trip generation? Explain the factors governing trip generation and
attraction rates.
04
(c) What is Urbanization? State the reasons of Urbanization. Discuss merits and
demerits of urbanization.
07
Q.2 (a)
Discuss the concept of travel demand.
03
(b) Explain average growth factor method of trip distribution. 04
(c)
Write short notes on:
i) Metro Rail Transit System
ii) Para transit transportation system
07
OR
(c)
Give classification of urban mass transit system and explain about BRTS.
07
Q.3 (a) Define the following:
i) Land use ii) Study area iii) CBD
03
(b)
What are the survey data checks? Explain accuracy check in detail
04
(c)
What do you mean by zoning? Describe points to be considered while zoning.
07
OR
Q.3 (a) Define the following:
i) Screen Line ii) Cordon line iii) Zones
03
(b) Write short note on: Network identification and coding. 04
(c)
Explain the procedure to conduct home interview and also write what data should be
collected during survey.
07
Q.4 (a) Discuss about opportunity models. 03
(b) Write a short note on All or nothing assignment method. 04
(c) The total trips production in and attracted to the three zones 1,2 and 3 of
survey area in the design year are tabulated as:
Zones Trips produced Trips attracted
1 2000 3000
2 3000 4000
3 4000 2000
It is known that the trips between two zones are inversely proportional to the
second power of the travel time between zones, which is uniformly 30
minutes. If the trips interchange between zones 2 and 3 is known to be 600,
calculate the trip interchanges between zones 1 to 2, 1 to 3, 2 to 1, 3 to 1 and
3 to 2.
07
OR
Q.4 (a) What is model split? Define (i) Captive transit riders (ii) Choice transit riders. 03
(b) Compare between trip end models and trip interchange models 04
