Calculating intrazonal impedances and identifying an appropriate level of spatial resolution: Handling non-motorized trips in macroscopic travel demand models

Non-motorized trips are generally short trips, and in macroscopic models, many of them end up in the same transport analysis zones from which they originate. Since the spatial aggregation nature of these models makes it difficult to model intrazonal trips, the treatment of non-motorized trips in such models is limited. Non-motorized trips can however not be neglected in urban transport analyses considering the high share of walking and cycling in urban areas, and their importance for sustainable...
