Influence of Integrated Multimodal Travel Information on Holiday Trip Chain Characteristics

Article Preview

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.
