Commuter departure time choice behavior under congestion charge: Analysis based on cumulative prospect theory

Kexin Geng et al.

Summary: This paper aims to provide empirical evidence to define the shape parameters in cumulative prospect theory (CPT) for car commuters' departure time choice behavior under congestion charge scenarios. The results suggest that commuters' departure time choice under the congestion charge policy is consistent with the assumption of CPT. The findings shed light on travelers' behavioral responses to congestion charge schemes and provide an important empirical reference.

Travel demand management: The solution to public transit congestion? An ex-ante evaluation of staggered work hours schemes for the Paris region

Nicolas Coulombel et al.

Summary: This study investigates the congestion relief potential of staggered work hours (SWH) schemes for public transit. A framework combining a hybrid assignment model with a travel demand management module is developed to simulate the impact of SWH schemes on travel demand and public transit congestion. The findings suggest that SWH schemes can effectively alleviate congestion, but the benefits are moderate and come with substantial rescheduling costs. The study also provides insights for policy design, recommending the focus on shifting a small number of users by a large amount of time rather than a large number of users by a small amount of time.

Price versus Commitment: Managing the demand for off-peak train tickets in a field experiment

Christoph Thommen et al.

Summary: Using a field experiment, this study provides estimates for the own-price elasticity of train travel in Switzerland. The estimates are based on exogenous changes to discounts for long-distance trains, avoiding endogeneity problems. The study finds that increasing the discount leads to earlier ticket purchases and computes own-price elasticities of around -0.7. Ending the early booking period on the previous day rather than an hour before departure decreases discount ticket sales by 18-30%, equivalent to a price increase of 26-43%. These results help in designing measures for peakshifting in transport at least societal cost.

Diseconomies of scale and subsidies in urban public transportation

Nicolas Coulombel et al.

Summary: Subsidization of urban public transportation systems is often motivated by economies of scale and second-best considerations. A study on the London Piccadilly line found evidence of substantial diseconomies of scale during the morning peak, questioning current subsidy policies for the busiest transit lines.

An ex-post evaluation of the public acceptance of a license plate-based restriction policy: A case study of Xi'an, China

Mingjie Luo et al.

Summary: In the past decade, there has been an increase in the adoption of License Plate-based Restriction policies in China and other cities around the world. However, the public acceptance of these policies has not been well-studied. This study aims to explore the factors affecting the public acceptance of a LPR policy by conducting a questionnaire survey and analyzing the data. The results show that problem perception, perceived effectiveness, perceived value, and social norms have a significant impact on the acceptance of a LPR policy.

Heterogeneity in departure time preferences, flexibility and schedule constraints

Mikkel Thorhauge et al.

Summary: This study develops a latent class choice model to analyze departure time preferences for morning commute trips by car, identifying three distinct classes with different preferences. The model shows that different population segments have varying degrees of flexibility and responsiveness to travel demand management strategies, highlighting the importance of considering diverse preferences in policy analysis.

Identification of key determinants of travel satisfaction for developing policy instrument to improve quality of life: An analysis of commuting in Delhi

Bandhan Bandhu Majumdar et al.

Summary: Commuting between an origin and destination pair is crucial for an individual's daily routine, and the level of trip satisfaction greatly impacts a commuter's well-being. Negative externalities such as traffic congestion, poor infrastructure, and safety concerns in urban travel contribute to reduced satisfaction among Indian commuters. This study identified key factors influencing perceived satisfaction related to different types of trips in New Delhi, revealing that demographics, accessibility, built-environment characteristics, and safety perception all play significant roles in commuters' trip satisfaction levels. The findings suggest policy measures like improving sidewalk conditions, reducing street congestion, and enhancing public transport accessibility to enhance the overall trip satisfaction of urban commuters in India.

Information provision and congestion pricing in a risky two-route network with heterogeneous travelers

Yang Liu et al.

Summary: This paper examines travelers' travel strategies and route choices in a road network with a risky route and a safe route, where travel information pricing are jointly implemented. It finds that information regarding the risky road conditions would not necessarily improve the expected system travel time, and when information is free, congestion may worsen.

Affected area and residual period of London Congestion Charging scheme on road safety

Hongliang Ding et al.

Summary: The London congestion charging scheme not only helped alleviate traffic congestion and reduce vehicle emissions, but also had a positive impact on road safety. Research showed significant safety benefits within a 1.5 km buffer area of the LCC zone, and a considerable crash reduction in the first year after the removal of Western Extension of LCC, although no significant reduction was observed in the following years. These findings could guide transport management policies to improve long-term road safety in Greater London.
