The ultimate goal of travel behavior analysis is to gain a full understanding of why people travel and to develop quantitative capabilities that facilitate the prediction of travel behavior. Toward this end, the individual’s travel behavior has been examined in connection with her activity engagement, with the recognition that travel demand is a derived demand. Studies from this viewpoint are r...

Telecommuting means that employees work completely or sometime at home or at remote telecommuting centres instead of daily travel to work at regular offices. Impacts of telecommuting on transport are becoming significant. This paper reviews the growth of telecommuting and analyzes the necessity to evaluate the influence of telecommuting in transport planning and control. The transport network e...

The topic of intermodal passenger mobility has become more important during the last 20 years. As options increase in number and flexibility, it gets attractive to combine multiple modes on single trips. In addition, travel behavior is expected contribute less car dependent transport sector’s reduction greenhouse gas emissions. Creating improving conditions for such a requires planning with kno...

We formulate a model for locating multiple-server, congestible facilities. Locations of these facilities maximize total expected demand attended over the region. The effective demand at each node is elastic to the travel time to the facility, and to the congestion at that facility. The facilities to be located are fixed, so customers travel to them in order to receive service or goods, and the ...

A great disparity exists between the direction of travel demand forecasting by researchers, and the travel demand models used by transportation planning organizations. Activity-based models of travel demand have become increasingly studied in the academic realm and significant advances have been made in recent years. However, travel demand forecasting tools used in practice have lagged behind, ...
