    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&lt;p&gt;This study mainly focuses on the Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit (AALRT) estimation of&lt;br&gt;
residential based person internal trips which unless analyzed can affects the project&lt;br&gt;
justification during the early stage of project installation, transportation planning during&lt;br&gt;
operation stages, identification of markets, service planning, facility assessments and&lt;br&gt;
revenue estimations.&lt;br&gt;
To estimate the trips the required primary and secondary data are collected, the primary&lt;br&gt;
data on locations closest to LRT routes are collected with a direct observation and&lt;br&gt;
interviewing of government officials and the secondary data on socio-economic data,&lt;br&gt;
census data and land use data are collected from various sources such as Central Statistics&lt;br&gt;
Authority, Addis Ababa Transport Authority and Addis Ababa City Plan Institute. The&lt;br&gt;
data gathered are analyzed using the Land Activity Rate or Land Use Method of trip&lt;br&gt;
based model for the base year trip production calculation and Growth Factor Methods for&lt;br&gt;
future trip projection calculations.&lt;br&gt;
the land activity rate is used to determine the total land areas covered by the LRT routes&lt;br&gt;
and the Institute for Transportation Engineers (ITE) standard is used to determine the&lt;br&gt;
trips per hectare produced and finally the growth factor method is used to project the&lt;br&gt;
trips for future times.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
