Route Choice Modelling for Freight Transport at National Level
نویسندگان
چکیده
Freight transport plays a fundamental role in the economy of every country. The performance of the European transport sector has been in line with the expanding economy. From 1995 to 2004 total European freight transport in the 25 Member States examined grew from 2,967,000 to 3,804,000 million tkm (+28 %). Considering only inland transport, it appears that the considerable growth was almost entirely realised by road transport (tab. 1).

In this study, an investigation of long-term forecasts relating to the development of the transport sector in Poland is performed, including the ones by 2030 and 2050. Selected transport development forecasts from the perspective of the membership of Poland in the European Union are presented and most of all, from the perspective of national studies. The basement for the review was the prognosi...
متن کاملA new approach to transport modelling - the Stochastic Segmented Slice Simulation (4S) model and its recent applications
Recently there has been renewed interest in alternative modelling approaches, driven by recognised deficiencies in the traditional four step model. One stream of development has come through improved modelling of individual and household travel scheduling and joint decision making, under the umbrella of tour-based and activity-based modelling. Another stream of development has been improved app...

This paper suggests an approach to plan logistics terminals. In particular, it describes an application to the freight transport by road involving the sicilian area. The modelling framework, which is inspired by the “Stackelberg game” paradigm, uses an objective function representing some relevant public interests and simulates the choice behaviour of freight transport operators. Basic assumpti...

Freight transport plays an important role within the functions of the road network, yet little is understood about the potential impacts of some travel demand management strategies on freight transport activity. This arises, in part, due to the interdependent nature of decision making within supply chains. To contribute to this shortcoming, this paper offers empirical results from a method desi...
