Abstract

Existing park and ride (P&R) facilities may enhance the serviceability of the transportation systems by redistributing travelers from vehicles mode to mass transit. As a tool in transportation demand management, road tolling policy will have an influence on the transportation system with P&R facilities. In this paper, impact of various road tolling policies on modal choice behaviors within context of commuting corridors with P&R services are investigated from the perspective of serviceability. The related road tolling schemes contains first-best toll, distance-based toll and cordon-based toll. The probability of commuters’ modal-choice is estimated using a stochastic equilibrium model. Innovatively, the serviceability concept is adopted to evaluate performances of different travel modes. Model results illustrate how transportation system performance is influenced by the different types of road tolling policies. Some of the results are concordant with empirical findings in the literature.
