Analysis on Relationship of Mode Choice and Residential Location

Abstract:

The relationship between urban transportation and land use is always an endless main topic in urban planning area. It is based on the theory of Nested Logit model, using the data of daily travel revealed preference survey of Beijing in 2008, set up the integrated model of mode choice and land use in this paper. The model have two levels, the first one is space choice level, which is using the land use variables, such as residential location and mixed land use; the other is mode choice level, taking the transportation variables, like travel time, travel cost etc. Parameter estimation results shown that this kind of model can reflect relevance of mode choice and land use at a more detailed level. It is also indicated that the model precision is high.
