Abstract: Based on the RP-SP data collected in the holiday travel behavior survey in 2013, this paper analyzed the impact effect of integrated multimodal travel information (IMTI) on the holiday trip chain characteristics. General statistical analysis is adopted to compare the trip chain structural characteristics, spatial-temporal characteristics and the mode split under the IMTI service or not. The results show that, under the influence of IMTI, 9% of the travelers will cancel their trips and 13% will change their trip mode. Moreover, the pre-trip information has a significant influence on the activity point number, trip chain length and travel time, has moderate influence on activity duration, and has weak influence on transfer time and trip distance. On the other hand, the en-route information has weak influence on the trip chain structure and spatiotemporal characteristics.

Abstract: Based on the result of SP survey, the transfer problems are classified and analyzed in detail. Then this paper conducts research on the passenger demand for metro transfer system. By using the Multinomial Logistic Model, the transfer impact factor is analyzed which could provide basical support for the improvement, planning and construction of public transit transfer system.
