MODELS OF INTERCITY TRAVEL DEMAND. PART I. THEORETICAL ASPECTS

The report presents a broad overview of all of the passenger travel demand models developed for the Northeast Corridor transportation project of the U. S. Department of Transportation through early 1969. It attempts to bring together the various strands of the demand model work into one summary document. It also attempts, on the basis of the overview, to combine the best features of each of the existing models in order to construct models which will be conceptually superior and also yield improved forecasting reliability.
