SOME PASSENGER ACCESS CHARACTERISTICS TO CERTAIN INTER-CITY RAIL TERMINI IN GREAT BRITAIN

The paper examines some of the characteristics of access to a main terminal for inter-city travellers between the centrally-located rail termini of Leeds, York and Newcastle, and develops access travel cost and time versus straight-line distance relationships for various access modes. Some of the access travel time relationships have been compared to previous work carried out in London, and this has indicated some degree of comparability between the areas, especially for the road-based access modes. /TRRL/
