RESEARCH STUDY OF INTERCITY-INTRA-URBAN-INTERFACES (I3). VOLUME III. METROPOLITAN IMPLEMENTATION: USER'S GUIDE

A set of three models has been used to replicate, for purposes of planning and analysis, the behavior and transportation-system effects of points at which different modes and carriers interconnect in urban areas (interfaces). Models of demand for transportation-interface (terminal) services, of transportation-network response to terminal operations, and of terminal operations themselves are described and fully documented.
