Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disaggregate mode choice models were calibrated for intercity passenger travel in Canada using a data base drawn from the Canadian Travel Survey. The purpose of the work was to evaluate the feasibility of developing disaggregate models for intercity travel using an existing Canadian data base. Multinomial logit models were calibrated for business and nonbusiness trips in the eastern and the western regions of Canada. The calibrated models produced reliable results in terms of goodness-of-fit measures. The likelihood ration index, p2(c), varied from0.282 to 0.436. Results obtained were comparable to those of previous studies. The research identified the significance of level-of-service factors in determining mode choice. The findings from the study indicated that the Canadian Travel Survey data could be used for developing dissagregate models for possible use in policy impact analysis. The potential for the use of this data base in the transportation planning process could be enhanced if some relatively minor modifications were made.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reports and discusses the results of an effort to develop disaggregate behavioural mode choice models of intercity travel in Canada. Currently available data bases of intercity travel in Canada are reviewed. he feasibility of using data from national travel surveys to develop statistically reliable intercity mode choice models is examined, and directions for future disaggregate data collection efforts are offered. The models developed are of the multinomial logit (MNL) type which included all intercity passenger travel modes: auto, air, bus, and rail.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis extends previous efforts to document the state of practice for airport ground access mode choice models. It examines the characteristics of existing models and discusses the issues involved in the development and use of such models to improve the understanding and acceptance of their role in airport planning and management. Information presented in this report may be of interest to a range of airport managers, airport and regional transportation planners, consultants and transportation modeling specialists, and researchers interested in issues involving airport ground access mode choice. For this synthesis, a comprehensive review of the relevant literature was undertaken. To document the extent of the recent use of airport ground access mode choice models and to identify sources of technical documentation on existing models, this literature review was supplemented by a survey of airport authorities, metropolitan planning organizations, consulting firms and research organizations, and other government agencies and industry organizations. Follow-up communications by telephone and e-mail were made where necessary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers alternative ways of describing the customers & potential customers of a transit system in order to improve transit planning, marketing, and policy-making. It presents findings of a literature review which examined traditional transit industry attitude surveys and related studies, as well as reports & data produced as part of transportation modelling studies conducted since the late 1950s. Based on the literature review, transit rider typologies are developed. The concluding section discusses the service planning & marketing implications of the information reviewed and makes recommendations related to data collection & analysis and related research issues. The appendix includes a detailed review of various studies that provide alternative approaches to transit customer profiling.

Book excerpt: Everyone needs transport to move around and to access everyday needs, but for each individual those needs are different, and they change over time and space: herein lie the seeds of inequalities in transport. In Inequality in Transport, David Banister addresses this complex problem, first through an exploration of inequality, its nature, measurement and extent. He then links inequality and the transport sector through detailed analysis of the variations in daily and long-distance travel in Great Britain over a ten-year period. He argues that there must be a much wider interpretation of inequality--one that links actual travel with measures of wellbeing and sustainability, recognizing that these will change over time. In drawing his findings together, he concludes that there must be new thinking in transport policy and planning if transport inequalities are to be alleviated.

Download or read book Modelling Public Transport Passenger Flows in the Era of Intelligent Transport Systems written by Guido Gentile and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-02-03 with total page 671 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how transit assignment models can be used to describe and predict the patterns of network patronage in public transport systems. It provides a fundamental technical tool that can be employed in the process of designing, implementing and evaluating measures and/or policies to improve the current state of transport systems within given financial, technical and social constraints. The book offers a unique methodological contribution to the field of transit assignment because, moving beyond “traditional” models, it describes more evolved variants that can reproduce:• intermodal networks with high- and low-frequency services;• realistic behavioural hypotheses underpinning route choice;• time dependency in frequency-based models; and• assumptions about the knowledge that users have of network conditionsthat are consistent with the present and future level of information that intelligent transport systems (ITS) can provide. The book also considers the practical perspective of practitioners and public transport operators who need to model and manage transit systems; for example, the role of ITS is explained with regard to their potential in data collection for modelling purposes and validation techniques, as well as with regard to the additional data on network patronage and passengers’ preferences that influences the network-management and control strategies implemented. In addition, it explains how the different aspects of network operations can be incorporated in traditional models and identifies the advantages and disadvantages of doing so. Lastly, the book provides practical information on state-of-the-art implementations of the different models and the commercial packages that are currently available for transit modelling. Showcasing original work done under the aegis of the COST Action TU1004 (TransITS), the book provides a broad readership, ranging from Master and PhD students to researchers and from policy makers to practitioners, with a comprehensive tool for understanding transit assignment models.
