Travel cost and time measurement in travel cost models TRAVEL COST AND TIME MEASUREMENT IN TRAVEL COST MODELS
In this paper we use the results of a recent on-site recreation survey to know whether it matters to use perceived rather than calculated travel costs. The calculated travel costs (time and money) are derived from detailed GIS computations. The perceived travel times and costs are taken directly from the survey responses. We first find that there is a high non-response rate for the perceived co...
متن کاملThe marginal social cost of travel time variability
This paper investigates the cost of travel time variability for car users at the peak hour. In particular, we derive the marginal social cost of travel time variability, which takes the feedback of travel time unreliability on the congestion profile into account. This is in contrast with the value of travel time variability, which treats congestion as an exogenous phenomenon. Congestion is mode...
متن کاملPredicting Travel Time Variability for Cost-Benefit Analysis
The goal of this paper is to develop an econometric model that can be used to predict travel time variability for cost-benefit-analysis (CBA). The model explains travel time variability by the size of (mean) delays, as well as by other time-variant and invariant road characteristics. The data set used for the analysis is based on travel time data of 146 Dutch highway links for the year 2008. Th...
متن کاملTravel time variability and rational inattention
This paper sets up a rational inattention model for the choice of departure time for a traveler facing random travel time. The traveler chooses how much information to acquire about the travel time outcome before choosing departure time. This reduces the cost of travel time variability compared to models in which the information is exogenously fixed .
متن کاملTravel Time Variability and Airport Accessibility
This paper analyses the cost of access travel time variability for air travelers. Reliable access to airports is important since it is likely that the cost of missing a flight is high. First, the determinants of the preferred arrival times at airports are analyzed, including trip purpose, type of airport, flight characteristics, travel experience, type of check-in, need to check-in luggage. Sec...
