Application of gravity model for trip analysis in transportation and traffic engineering for Owerri Metropolis Nigeria
The myriads of problems militating against the transportation system precipitated the conception of this research work. The survey design and empirical approaches were combined in the pursuance of this work. This work focused on the application of the gravity method in the trip analysis in Owerri metropolis. The research was able to estimate the number of trip interchanges among the various zones of the metropolis. The travel time from one zone to another zone within the study area was established. From this research, it was established that it would take 25 minutes and 50 minutes to travel from zone 5 to zone 2 and from zone 4 to zone 1 respectively. The number of trips from zone 3 to zone 4 was estimated to be 1146 trips and the number of trips generated and produced was put at 4119 trips per day. This research will help to curb the problem of dearth of data and aid the proper planning and management of the transportation system by engineers and other stakeholders.
