Passenger Route Choice Behavior with Congestion Consideration

Article Preview

Abstract:

Few studies have adequately focused on passenger route choice behavior with congestion consideration, or provided useful guidance on passenger route choice and hence the transit assignment model, which is the writing motivation of this paper. With congestion consideration, travel cost is assessed and and ways to reduce it also identified. Finally, an actual transit network of Chengdu is used as a case study to demonstrate the benefits of the proposed model. The result indicates that the vehicle capacity is an important factor that cant be ignored and a better understanding of passenger route behavior could significantly benefit public transit system.
