5.2. Future Travel Demands<br />
Future travel demand and future capacity deficiencies were determined for the p.m. peak<br />
hour by applying the four stages <strong>of</strong> the model (i.e. trip generation, trip distribution, modal split<br />
and assignment) as described in Section 4 <strong>of</strong> this report, and using future population and<br />
employment figures and the existing and future road network as inputs.<br />
To determine future travel demands, a Year 2021 daily auto trip matrix was developed using<br />
a growth factor technique and the Year 2021 population and employment figures.<br />
Figure 5.2.1 shows the current daily travel demand and the growth in daily travel demand<br />
projected by 2021 for the former municipalities. The largest increases are expected to be<br />
within Valley East, and, between Valley East and the former <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Sudbury</strong>. These<br />
increases are 22% and 18% respectively. 13% increases can be expected between <strong>Sudbury</strong><br />
and Nickel Centre, <strong>Sudbury</strong> and Walden, within Walden, within <strong>Sudbury</strong> and within Nickel<br />
Centre.<br />
