PASSENGER TRANSPORT INTERCHANGE BETWEEN INLAND SURFACE MODES--A STATE OF THE ART REVIEW

This critical review covers over 100 reports and describes the state of the art in 1975 regarding passenger transport interchange between inland surface modes. The research findings of various investigators are compared and contrasted to gain an understanding of the role of interchange in a journey, and the stages of a journey in which interchange occurs. The criteria for interchange design and planning are discussed. The studies of interchange between private and public transport modes - park and ride (bus), park and ride (rail), and kiss and ride - and between public modes (bus-bus, bus-rail, and rail-rail) are reported, and the research techniques used in them are assessed. /Author/TRRL/
