Abstract

In this study, by analyzing the day-to-day variations of route conditions and the formation process of drivers' travel time perception in the case where travel behavior is repeated under the stochastic travel demand, we try to evaluate the effects of the provision of travel time information on travel behavior and network performance. For this purpose, we construct a simulation model of traffic assignment for a simple network. Then, by changing the route characteristics and the stochastic travel demand property with and without the provision of travel time information, we examine the simulation results and try to get knowledge concerning the effects of travel time information provision.
