Abstract

The Chicago Area Transportation/Land‐Use Analysis System (CATLAS) is a large scale urban simulation model which synthesizes “location rent analysis” from urban economics with “travel demand analysis” from transportation planning. This paper describes the theoretical formulation, empirical estimation and policy application of CATLAS to the evaluation of CBD‐oriented rapid transit projects in Chicago.
