ESTIMATING BENEFITS OF TRAVEL DEMAND MANAGEMENT MEASURES

In this paper, models for estimating benefits of travel demand management measures are presented. These models consider the uncertainty of travel times emanating from park-and-ride systems and road pricing, and are based on driver behavior studies and dynamic traffic simulation. A test road and railway network in Kyoto-Osaka area, Japan, was used as a case study for the models. Results indicate that commuting drivers can expect both benefits by reducing travel times, as well as reducing variation of travel times by implementing park-and-ride systems.
