POLICY SIMULATIONS WITH THE CHICAGO AREA TRANSPORT/LAND USE ANALYSIS SYSTEM (CATLAS)

The Chicago Area Transportation/Land Use Analysis System (CATLAS) is a large urban simulation model which synthesizes "location rent analysis" from urban economics with "travel demand analysis" from transportation planning. This paper describes the theoretical formulation, empirical estimation and policy application of CATLAS to the evaluation of cbd-oriented rapid transit projects in Chicago. For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 276520. (Author/TRRL)
