Abstract

Transportation planners need demand forecasts for the evaluation of plans and policies, and for a detailed design of projects. It is important that the errors and uncertainties intrinsic in the forecasting process be recognised and explicitly treated. Some of the sources of error and uncertainty are reviewed. Some of the ways in which uncertainty can be treated in decision-making are discussed.
