Mobility and Transport Planning Skill
This skill provides a comprehensive transport and mobility planning framework for urban design at the neighborhood, district, and city scales. It draws on ITE Trip Generation (11th Edition), TfL transport assessment guidance, ITDP standards, NACTO transit street guidance, Dutch cycling infrastructure design manuals (CROW), and global best practices from cities achieving high non-car mode shares.
The goal is to ensure every urban design proposal includes a robust, multimodal transport strategy that prioritizes walking, cycling, and transit over private car use, while handling freight and servicing efficiently.
1. Transport Demand Estimation
1.1 Trip Generation by Land Use (ITE 11th Edition Basis)
Use the following rates for preliminary transport demand estimation. Rates are per unit (dwelling, 100m2 GFA, room, seat) and represent daily person-trips (all modes). Apply mode split factors (Section 2) to convert to vehicle trips.
Residential
| Type | Unit | Daily Person-Trips | AM Peak | PM Peak |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached house | per dwelling | 9.4 | 0.74 | 1.00 |
| Townhouse / row house | per dwelling | 7.2 | 0.56 | 0.76 |
| Low-rise apartment (1-3 floors) | per dwelling | 6.6 | 0.51 | 0.62 |
| Mid-rise apartment (4-10 floors) | per dwelling | 5.4 | 0.36 | 0.44 |
| High-rise apartment (11+ floors) | per dwelling | 4.2 | 0.30 | 0.36 |
| Student housing | per bed | 3.6 | 0.28 | 0.32 |
| Senior housing | per unit | 3.0 | 0.20 | 0.24 |
Commercial / Office
| Type | Unit | Daily Person-Trips | AM Peak | PM Peak |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| General office | per 100m2 GFA | 11.0 | 1.56 | 1.49 |
| Medical office | per 100m2 GFA | 36.1 | 2.78 | 3.46 |
| Business park | per 100m2 GFA | 12.4 | 1.73 | 1.74 |
| Co-working / flexible | per 100m2 GFA | 14.0 | 1.90 | 1.80 |
Retail
| Type | Unit | Daily Person-Trips | AM Peak | PM Peak |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neighborhood retail | per 100m2 GFA | 42.7 | 1.03 | 3.75 |
| Shopping center | per 100m2 GFA | 37.8 | 0.96 | 3.41 |
| Supermarket | per 100m2 GFA | 102.2 | 3.40 | 9.48 |
| Convenience store | per 100m2 GFA | 737.0 | 33.6 | 52.4 |
| Restaurant / F&B | per 100m2 GFA | 89.9 | 0.73 | 7.49 |
Civic / Institutional
| Type | Unit | Daily Person-Trips | AM Peak | PM Peak |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary school | per student | 1.5 | 0.80 | 0.28 |
| Secondary school | per student | 1.7 | 0.75 | 0.28 |
| University | per student | 2.4 | 0.56 | 0.17 |
| Hospital | per bed | 11.2 | 1.07 | 0.93 |
| Community center | per 100m2 GFA | 33.3 | 0.73 | 3.22 |
| Place of worship | per seat | 0.6 | 0.01 | 0.04 |
| Library | per 100m2 GFA | 54.0 | 1.25 | 4.90 |
Hospitality
| Type | Unit | Daily Person-Trips | AM Peak | PM Peak |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hotel (business) | per room | 8.2 | 0.60 | 0.59 |
| Hotel (resort) | per room | 5.6 | 0.32 | 0.41 |
| Serviced apartment | per unit | 4.8 | 0.34 | 0.40 |
1.2 Aggregation Method
For a mixed-use district, total daily person-trips:
Total Person-Trips = Sum of (units x trip rate) for each use
Then apply internal capture reduction:
- Mixed-use districts with vertical/horizontal mix: 10-25% internal capture
- Single-use zones: 0-5% internal capture
- TOD areas: additional 5-15% reduction for transit proximity
Adjusted Person-Trips = Total x (1 - internal_capture) x (1 - transit_reduction)
1.3 Peak Hour Analysis
Peak hours determine intersection capacity requirements:
AM Peak Vehicle Trips = Adjusted Person-Trips x AM_peak_factor x car_mode_share
PM Peak Vehicle Trips = Adjusted Person-Trips x PM_peak_factor x car_mode_share
Where:
AM_peak_factor = AM Peak Trip Rate / Daily Trip Rate (typically 0.08-0.12)
PM_peak_factor = PM Peak Trip Rate / Daily Trip Rate (typically 0.09-0.14)
2. Mode Split Framework
2.1 Target Mode Split by Context
Mode split targets depend on urban context, transit provision, and design quality. Use the following as starting targets, then adjust based on transit investment and design interventions.
| Context | Walk | Cycle | Transit | Car | Freight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CBD / Urban Core | 25-35% | 5-15% | 35-45% | 10-25% | 2-5% |
| Inner Urban (TOD) | 20-30% | 10-20% | 25-35% | 20-35% | 3-5% |
| Urban Neighborhood | 15-25% | 8-15% | 15-25% | 35-50% | 3-5% |
| Suburban Center | 10-15% | 5-10% | 10-20% | 55-70% | 3-5% |
| Suburban Residential | 5-10% | 3-8% | 5-15% | 65-80% | 2-4% |
| Campus / Innovation | 20-30% | 15-25% | 15-25% | 25-40% | 2-4% |
| Rural / Village | 15-25% | 5-10% | 2-8% | 55-75% | 5-8% |
2.2 Mode Shift Levers
Each intervention shifts mode share. Combine levers to reach targets:
| Intervention | Car Trip Reduction | Evidence Base |
|---|---|---|
| High-quality transit (metro/BRT within 400m) | 15-30% | ITDP, TfL |
| Protected cycle network (AAA standard) | 5-15% | CROW, Copenhagen |
| Walkable street network (intersection density > 100/km2) | 5-10% | Space Syntax |
| Reduced parking supply (below 0.5 spaces/unit) | 10-20% | Victoria Transport Policy |
| Car-free / car-lite zone | 20-40% | Vauban, Hammarby |
| Mobility hub (shared mobility + transit) | 5-10% | MaaS Alliance |
| Congestion pricing / road pricing | 10-20% | Stockholm, Singapore |
| Employer TDM programs | 5-15% | US EPA, TfL |
| Mixed-use development (jobs-housing balance) | 5-15% | Smart Growth |
| Bike-share system (dense network) | 2-5% | NACTO |
2.3 Vehicle-Kilometers Traveled (VKT) Estimation
Daily VKT = Car Person-Trips x Average Trip Length (km) x Vehicle Occupancy Factor
Where:
Average Trip Length:
CBD: 4-8 km
Urban: 6-12 km
Suburban: 10-20 km
Vehicle Occupancy: 1.2-1.5 persons/vehicle (commute), 1.8-2.2 (other)
Annual VKT = Daily VKT x 330 (weekday equivalent days)
VKT per Capita = Annual VKT / Population
VKT Benchmarks:
- Best practice (Amsterdam, Copenhagen): 4,000-6,000 VKT/capita/year
- Good urban (London, Singapore): 6,000-9,000
- Average developed city: 10,000-15,000
- Car-dependent sprawl (US average): 15,000-25,000
3. Street Network Design
3.1 Network Connectivity Metrics
| Metric | Poor | Adequate | Good | Excellent |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intersection density (per km2) | < 40 | 40-80 | 80-120 | > 120 |
| Link-node ratio | < 1.2 | 1.2-1.4 | 1.4-1.6 | > 1.6 |
| Connected node ratio | < 0.4 | 0.4-0.6 | 0.6-0.8 | > 0.8 |
| Block perimeter (average) | > 600m | 400-600m | 250-400m | < 250m |
| Route directness (avg detour) | > 1.6x | 1.3-1.6x | 1.1-1.3x | < 1.1x |
| Cul-de-sac percentage | > 30% | 15-30% | 5-15% | < 5% |
3.2 Street Hierarchy Capacity
| Classification | Lanes/Dir | Capacity (veh/hr/lane) | ADT Range | Signal Spacing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Expressway | 2-4 | 1,800-2,000 | > 40,000 | Grade-separated |
| Primary arterial | 2-3 | 800-1,000 | 15,000-40,000 | 300-600m |
| Secondary arterial | 1-2 | 700-900 | 8,000-15,000 | 200-400m |
| Collector | 1-2 | 600-800 | 3,000-8,000 | 150-300m |
| Local | 1 | 400-600 | < 3,000 | Uncontrolled |
| Shared / woonerf | 1 (shared) | N/A | < 1,000 | N/A |
3.3 Intersection Level of Service (LOS)
Signalized intersection capacity (per approach lane):
Saturation flow = 1,800 veh/hr (ideal)
Effective green ratio = g/C (green time / cycle time)
Capacity per lane = 1,800 x (g/C) x adjustment_factors
Volume-to-Capacity ratio (v/c):
LOS A: v/c <= 0.60 (free flow, delay < 10 sec)
LOS B: v/c 0.60-0.70 (stable, delay 10-20 sec)
LOS C: v/c 0.70-0.80 (stable, delay 20-35 sec)
LOS D: v/c 0.80-0.90 (approaching instability, delay 35-55 sec)
LOS E: v/c 0.90-1.00 (unstable, delay 55-80 sec)
LOS F: v/c > 1.00 (forced flow, delay > 80 sec)
Design target: LOS C or better for all approaches at buildout. Exception: In urban core areas, LOS D may be acceptable if pedestrian, cycling, and transit levels of service are excellent.

Demand 5,000-15,000 → LRT, BRT, or high-frequency tram
Demand 2,000-5,000 → Enhanced bus, tram, or BRT-lite
Demand < 2,000 → Standard bus or demand-responsive
pphpd = passengers per hour per direction

- Directness - Detour factor < 1.2x vs. car route; cyclists should not be forced onto longer routes
- Safety - Separation from motor traffic on roads > 30 km/h or > 2,000 ADT; protected intersections
- Comfort - Smooth surface, gentle grades (< 5% sustained), weather protection at stops, adequate width to overtake
- Attractiveness - Green corridors, lighting, wayfinding, views, social safety (eyes on path)
5.3 Cycling Infrastructure Selection

Road speed limit 30-50 km/h AND ADT 4,000-10,000 → Protected track or buffered lane
Road speed limit 30 km/h AND ADT 2,000-4,000 → Buffered lane or bike lane
Road speed limit 30 km/h AND ADT < 2,000 → Bike lane or shared lane
Road speed limit < 30 km/h AND ADT < 500 → Shared lane or cycle street
Off-road corridor → Shared-use path (3.0m+ width)
5.4 Cycle Parking Standards
| Use | Short-Term (visitor) | Long-Term (resident/employee) |
|---|---|---|
| Residential | 0.05 spaces/unit | 1.0-2.0 spaces/unit |
| Office | 1 per 500m2 GFA | 1 per 100-150m2 GFA |

Design targets: LOS C minimum on all sidewalks; LOS B at transit stops and crossings during peak.
6.3 Pedestrian Crossing Standards
| Road Width | Crossing Type | Maximum Wait | Refuge Island |
|---|---|---|---|
| < 6m (1 lane/dir) | Uncontrolled / zebra | 0 sec | Not needed |
| 6-9m (2 lanes) | Zebra with raised table | 0 sec | Recommended |

9. Transport Impact Assessment Workflow
When a transport chapter is needed for a masterplan or development application, follow this workflow:
Step 1: Establish Baseline
- Existing traffic counts on surrounding network (ADT, peak hour)
- Existing transit services (routes, frequencies, capacity, patronage)
- Existing pedestrian and cycling infrastructure quality and flows
- Committed transport schemes (planned but not yet built)
Step 2: Estimate Demand
- Apply trip generation rates (Section 1) to the proposed program
- Apply internal capture reduction for mixed-use
- Apply mode split targets (Section 2) based on context and planned interventions
- Calculate peak hour vehicle, transit, pedestrian, and cycling trips
Step 3: Assign Trips
- Distribute trips to the surrounding network based on likely origin-destination patterns
- For vehicle trips: assign to road network, identify loaded links
- For transit trips: check capacity of planned/existing services
- For walking/cycling: check network connectivity and route quality
Step 4: Assess Impact
- Compare baseline + development vehicle volumes to intersection capacity (Section 3.3)
- Check transit capacity vs. projected demand
- Check pedestrian LOS at key crossings and sidewalks (Section 6.2)
- Check cycling route capacity and continuity
Step 5: Mitigate
- If vehicle LOS degrades below target: add mode shift levers (Section 2.2)
- If transit is over-capacity: increase service frequency or add routes
- If pedestrian LOS degrades: widen sidewalks, add crossings, reduce signal wait
- If cycling network has gaps: add protected infrastructure
Step 6: Monitor
- Define triggers for transport review (e.g., per 500 dwellings occupied)
- Set monitoring KPIs: mode split, VKT/capita, intersection LOS, transit patronage
- Establish a travel plan coordinator role for developments > 500 units
10. Transport Demand Management (TDM)
10.1 TDM Toolkit
| Strategy | Target Group | Typical Effectiveness |
|---|---|---|
| Workplace travel plan | Employees | 10-30% car trip reduction |
| Residential travel plan | Residents | 5-15% car trip reduction |
| School travel plan | Students/parents | 10-25% car trip reduction |
| Car-share membership | Residents/employees | 1 car-share replaces 8-13 private cars |
| Bike-to-work scheme | Employees | 5-15% mode shift to cycling |
| Flexible working / WFH | Office employees | 10-20% peak trip reduction |
| Delivery consolidation | Commercial occupiers | 20-40% freight trip reduction |
| Parking pricing / cash-out | Employees | 10-30% car trip reduction |
| Real-time travel info | All users | 3-8% mode shift |
| Gamification / rewards | All users | 2-5% mode shift |
10.2 Parking as TDM
Critical principle: Parking supply is the single most powerful lever for mode split. Reducing parking supply below car ownership rates forces behavior change more effectively than any other intervention.
| Context | Maximum Parking Ratio | Car Ownership Effect |
|---|---|---|
| CBD / transit-rich | 0-0.3 spaces/unit | 0.2-0.4 cars/household |
| Inner urban (good transit) | 0.3-0.7 spaces/unit | 0.5-0.8 cars/household |
| Urban neighborhood | 0.7-1.0 spaces/unit | 0.8-1.2 cars/household |
| Suburban (some transit) | 1.0-1.5 spaces/unit | 1.2-1.8 cars/household |
| Suburban (car-dependent) | 1.5-2.0 spaces/unit | 1.5-2.2 cars/household |
11. Transport Metrics Dashboard
When producing a transport strategy for a masterplan or district plan, compile these metrics:
| Metric | Target | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Mode split (walk) | > 20% | Context-dependent |
| Mode split (cycle) | > 10% | Context-dependent |
| Mode split (transit) | > 25% | Context-dependent |
| Mode split (car) | < 40% | Context-dependent |
| VKT per capita per year | < 8,000 km | Best practice |
| Intersection density | > 100 per km2 | ITDP |
| % population within 400m of transit | > 80% | UN-Habitat |
| Average pedestrian crossing wait | < 45 sec | TfL |
| Parking ratio (residential) | < 0.7 spaces/unit | TOD standard |
| Cycle network density | > 1.5 km per km2 | CROW |
| Loading bays per 10,000m2 commercial | 2-4 | Planning standards |
| EV charging points per 100 parking spaces | > 20 | EU directive |
| Mobility hub coverage (% pop within 800m) | > 70% | MaaS standard |
Cross-Skill Integration
This skill integrates with:
