The STM was designed by Hague Consulting Group (1997). In Stage 1 of model development (1999–2000), Hague Consulting Group developed mode-destination and frequency models for commuting travel, as well as models of licence ownership and car ownership. In addition, a forecasting system was developed incorporating these components. In Stage 2 of model development (2001–2002), RAND Europe, incorporating Hague Consulting Group, developed mode and destination and frequency models for the remaining home-based purposes, as well as for non-home-based business travel.

    THE GPT GROUP ANNOUNCES 2 May 2016 March Quarter Operational Update The GPT Group (GPT) today announced its operational update for the March 2016 quarter. Key Highlights . Retail specialty MAT sales growth of 5.9 per cent . 17,900 sqm office leases signed and a further 9,600 sqm of deals at Heads of Agreement for the quarter . Standard & Poor's raised its long-term rating to 'A' and the short-term rating to 'A-1' CEO and Managing Director Bob Johnston said it had been another solid quarter of activity for GPT, with continued positive trading conditions across its retail, office and logistics portfolios. Overall, the portfolio continues to benefit from the strong NSW and Victorian economies. “The Group has a strong balance sheet position, as reflected by S&P’s recent upgrade of GPT’s long and short term credit rating to A/A-1. We remain on target to deliver our earnings guidance for the full year of between 4 to 5 per cent EPS growth,” Mr Johnston said. Retail Following strong comparable specialty moving annual turnover (MAT) growth of 6.5 per cent for 2015, growth moderated slightly in the 12 months to 31 March to 5.9 per cent. Specialty sales growth in the first quarter of 2016 was 3.0 percent. Our Melbourne Central, Highpoint and Rouse Hill shopping centres continued to outperform, reflecting their strong market positions. Australian Bureau of Statistics data for the 12 months to February showed retail sales growth in Victoria remained well above the national average, while sales growth in NSW had moderated from its 2015 highs.
