Question
The Jeffersonville Transportation Study Area has been divided into four large districts (traffic zones). The following data have been collected for those districts. Provide a trip distribution calculation using the gravity model for two Assume Kij = 1.

Transcribed Image Text:The table shown provides a breakdown of four districts, detailing the number of productions and attractions in each, alongside the travel times in minutes between specific points within those districts.
### Table Details:
#### District Information:
- **District 1:**
- Productions: 1200
- Attractions: 1500
- Travel Times (to other points): 5, 8, 12, 15 minutes.
- **District 2:**
- Productions: 2000
- Attractions: 1700
- Travel Times: 8, 5, 10, 8 minutes.
- **District 3:**
- Productions: 3200
- Attractions: 3500
- Travel Times: 12, 10, 5, 7 minutes.
- **District 4:**
- Productions: 2200
- Attractions: 1900
- Travel Times: 15, 8, 7, 5 minutes.
#### Additional Information:
Below the main table, there is another smaller table labeled "Travel Time" displaying a factor called "F_ij" corresponding to different travel times:
- **Travel Time (minutes):** 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 15
- **F_ij Values:** 1.7, 1.4, 1.1, 0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.4
This F_ij factor is likely used for calculations involving travel efficiency or cost effectiveness, decreasing as the travel time increases.
