Abstract

This research analyzes the demand for intercity high-speed rail (HSR) system planned in Japan with the integrated demand forecasting model. The model integrates choice of routes and modes is estimated from a combined stated preference (SP) and revealed preference (RP) data. The SP/RP combined estimation method exploits the advantages of both data sets while mitigating the weaknesses of each. The SP survey is conducted to elicit preference for the non-existing high-speed rail together with the RP survey on the actual intercity mode choice for the specific corridor. Considering the independence of irrelevant alternatives (IIA) attribute, a nested structure is applied to these alternatives and the advantages of the nested logit model with the combined SP/RP data are discussed in this paper.
