From page 104...
... ITE provides a recommended practice for estimating internal capture and associated external trip generation for what it calls "multi-use developments." As described, those developments have characteristics similar to the common definition used for MXDs. The research team accepted the two terms as used as being essentially equal.

... It is recommended for use, but it is also recommended that when additional data becomes available, attempts should be made to develop proximity factors for more land use pairs. Suggested Modifications to Existing ITE Procedures As mentioned previously, the recommended estimation method builds on the current ITE internal trip capture procedures contained in the second edition of the Trip Generation Handbook (1)

From page 106...
... However, it was evident that some of the internal trips made may have been induced or resulted from having proximate interacting land uses. The question asked whether the respondent would have made the trip being discussed if the selected destination did not exist within Legacy Town Center.

From page 108...
... Internal capture estimates were not developed for land uses beyond the six classifications provided herein. The extent of the internal capture for other land use pairs has not been tested as part of this project.
