Tudor Wharf Draft Environmental Impact Report EOEA # 6744 



Navy Yard and Tudor Wharf. The CTPS 

 survey was undertaken to determine actual 

 trip distribution for office development 

 in the vicinity of the Charlestown Navy 

 Yard for the CANA project. 



The survey was conducted midday on April 

 14, 1987 and matched approximately one- 

 third of the license plate numbers of 

 vehicles parked in the Constitution Plaza 

 parking lot with the Registry of Motor 

 Vehicles license plate tape file to 

 determine the origin of the vehicles. 

 CTPS then made several adjustments based 

 on the following assumptions: 



1. Fifteen percent of all new-development 

 trips will have local Charlestown origins 

 and destinations. 



2. Trip distribution by corridor for 

 residential, commercial, and recreational 

 trips will be the same as for office 

 trips. Non-office trips will probably be 

 shorter than office trips, but by 

 corridor there is no reason to assume 

 that they will differ greatly. 



3. Trips will be more skewed to the north 

 and to the near west than in the survey 

 statistics from Constitution Plaza. This 

 assumption is based on the present and 

 future difficulty in accessing 

 Charlestown from points requiring use of
