Abstract
SUMMARYThis study attempts to develop a method for inter‐regional train demand estimation considering multi‐mode route alternatives. A special effort is made to avoid the path overlapping problem when using logit‐type route choice models by adopting the C‐logit type model. The characteristics of route choice behavior between multi‐mode and single‐mode routes are indicated on the basis of the original questionnaire survey data to reveal factors that apply to multi‐mode route choice. On the basis of these factors, the modified C‐logit type route choice model is applied to route choice behavior of inter‐regional passengers to take path overlapping problems in a multi‐mode inter‐regional transportation network into account. Compared to the classic logit‐type model, the developed model has a better performance, a conclusion drawn on the basis of Akaike's information criterion and the adjusted likelihood ratio. A sample demand simulation is then conducted to demonstrate how the developed model can be applied in practice. The result indicates that the developed model successfully estimated route choice behavior in a multi‐mode inter‐regional transportation network.
