Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of route choice principles proposed in the past, followed by an in-depth analysis of three types of traffic assignment models. It discusses their formulations, calibration, and validation through a case study. Specifically, this chapter is organized as follows. First, it reviews a few route choice principles. Secondly, the user equilibrium (UE) and stochastic user equilibrium (SUE) models are depicted, together with a brief discussion on the logit-based SUE model. Thirdly, the formulation of the probit-based SUE model is depicted to facilitate the discussion on model calibration. Fourthly, a case study in Hong Kong is presented in order to compare the various traffic assignment models and finally, some concluding comments are given.
