Using the base year Miasma Beach Origin-Destination Survey, the percentages of trips by time-of-day were computed and are displayed in Table 6a and 6b. Table 6b is used by transcad to extract appropriate O/D matrices from the 24-hour trip matrices and simultaneously convert person-trips to vehicle-trips.
Spring 2004: Miasma Beach is only concerned with PM-peak period (defined as 5 to 6 PM).
