Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

IN THIS STUDY, DISAGGREGATED PROBABILITY CHOICE MODELS ARE DEVELOPED FOR THE ACCESS MODE AND FOR ACCESS STATION SELECTIONS. IN EACH OF THESE MODELS, THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO FROM WHICH AN INDIVIDUAL TRAVELLER IS ALLOWED TO MAKE A CHOICE. THE RESULTS OF THIS STUDY SUGGESTS THAT THE TRAVELLERS' DECISION-MAKING PROCESS FOR THE MODE AND STATION CHOICES OF AN ACCESS TRIP IS BEHAVIORALLY SEPARATE. THAT IS THE MODE CHOICE PRECEDED BY STATION CHOICE. THE AUTO MODE IS SHOWN TO BE THE LEAST PREFERRED ACCESS MODE AS COMPARED TO THE WALK AND BUS MODES. THE TRAVELLERS DO NOT VALUE THE SET OF TRANSPORTATION ATTRIBUTES THE SAME WHEN MAKING DECISIONS OF THE TWO CHOICES. FINALLY, IT IS SHOWN THAT DIFFERENT DEFINITIONS OF THE RELEVANT ALTERNATIVES RESULT IN SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT MODELS. /NTIS/
