Abstract
Baxter M. J. and Ewing G. (1981) Models of recreational trip distribution, Reg. Studies 15, 327–344. Singly constrained gravity models for recreational trip distribution are investigated with different subsets of data, measures of distance travelled, deterrence functions and levels of zonal aggregation. Estimates, and their interpretation, exhibit some consistency for the most disaggregate system, however the data is treated; for more aggregated systems there is much variation in the results obtained. Models that allow for the effect of barriers to travel are developed, and a multi-stop model incorporating features peculiar to recreational trips is proposed and calibrated. Some unresolved problems associated with the use of this model are indicated.
