PASSENGER DEMAND RESEARCH IN LONDON TRANSPORT

Areas demanding further research are considered, the results of partial statistical analysis are briefly reviewed, and the development of a model which incorporates the comprehensive transportation study approach and the results of statistical analysis is outlined. This model will contain behaviorally plausible relationships based on transportation planning theory; segment passenger journeys into a number of market categories; and be comprehensive i.e. include trips made by all modes. The basic data source being used to estimate trip patterns and model market shares is the Greater London Transportation Survey 1971/2.
