Accessibility appraisal of integrated land-use/transport strategies: methodology and case study for the Netherlands Randstad area (concept for review)
نویسندگان
چکیده
Conventional approaches to measuring accessibility benefits are not capable of fully measuring the total accessibility benefits of integrated land-use/transport strategies, where both land-use and transport changes form part of the policy strategy. In this paper, a comprehensive methodology for analysing accessibility impacts and accessibility benefits, based on location-based and utility-based accessibility measures within an integrated landuse/transport interaction-modelling framework is described and applied in a case study. The case study examined the accessibility benefits and related user benefits of intensive and multiple land use strategies aimed at increasing the density and diversity of activities around railway stations for the Netherlands Randstad area for the 1996-2030 period. It is shown that heavy concentrations of activities near railway stations result in decreasing marginal returns for public transport users and disbenefits to car users.

متن کاملApplication of a LUTI model for the assessment of land use plans and public transport investments
Integrated land-use and transport interaction models (LUTI) are praised for their ability to evaluate land-use and transport planning in an integrated and consistent modeling system. However, applications of empirically estimated land use models are rare. This paper will present the application of the Dutch national land-use/transport interaction model TIGRIS XL in a recent land-use and transpo...
