 | Number of travel parties

*These estimates are based on the average daily 2-way traffic flow for
a 10 hour day. To calculate the number of travelers--instead of the
number of travel parties--each value must be multiplied by the group size
for each type of travel party. The following are the mean group size
for each type of travel party:
