The rapid urbanization in our metropolitan cities has resulted in simultaneous expansion of cities in spatial dimension. The impact is also on the city infrastructure required for various sectors including transportation. There is significant growth in vehicles population which has eventually air influenced travel pattern, trip length and trip rates .the present study highlights the trip rate generation in recently expanded city areas based on survey home interview data carried in city to capture socio economic and households characteristics .an attempt has been made to develop a multi leaner regression model to predict the likely household trip on daily basis.
