After the first stage of transportation planning i.e. trip generation, it is necessary to determine the direction of travel. The number of trips generated in various zones of the area under study has to be apportioned to the various zones to which these trips are attracted. These generated trips from each zone are then distributed to all other zones based on the choice of destination i.e. Trip distribution. This paper gives a framework for the trip distribution for the city of Vadodara based on a Household Survey, as the data is main input for O-D matrix. The trips are combination of work trips, shopping trips, recreational trips and religious trips.
