Abstract The motorcycle is a popular mode of transport in Malaysia and developing Asian countries, but its significant representation in the traffic mix results in high rates of motorcycle accidents. As a result, the Malaysian Government decided to segregate motorcycle traffic along its new federal roads as an engineering approach to reduce accidents. However, traffic engineers needed to know the maximum traffic a motorcycle lane could accommodate. Despite substantial literature related to speed–flow–density relationships and capacities of various transport facilities, there is a knowledge gap regarding motorcycle lanes. This paper establishes motorcycle speed–flow–density relationships and capacities of exclusive motorcycle lanes in Malaysia. Observations of motorcycle flows and speeds were conducted along existing and experimental motorcycle lanes. Motorcycle speed–density data were aggregated and plotted for two types of observable motorcycle riding behaviour patterns that were influenced by the widths of a motorcycle lane: the headway pattern (lane width ≤ 1.7 m) and the space pattern (lane width > 1.7 m). For both riding patterns, regression analysis of motorcycle speed–density data best fits the logarithmic model and consequently the motorcycle flow–density and speed–flow models are derived. Motorcycle lane capacities for headway and space riding patterns are estimated as 3300 mc/hr/lane and 2200 mc/hr/m, respectively. 相似文献

Abstract Hybrid choice modelling approaches allow latent variables in mode choice utility functions to be addressed. However, defining attitude and behavior as latent variables is influenced by the researcher's assumptions. Therefore, it is better to capture the effects of latent behavioral and attitudinal factors as latent variables than defining behaviors and attitudes per se. This article uses a hybrid choice model for capturing such latent effects, which will herein be referred to as modal captivity effects in commuting mode choice. Latent modal captivity refers to the unobserved and apparently unexplained attraction towards a specific mode of transportation that is resulting from latent attitude and behavior of passengers in addition to the urban transportation system. In empirical models, the latent modal captivity variables are explained as functions of different observed variables. Empirical models show significant improvement in fitting observed data as well as improved understanding of travel behavior. 相似文献

The integrated modeling of land use and transportation choices involves analyzing a continuum of choices that characterize
people’s lifestyles across temporal scales. This includes long-term choices such as residential and work location choices
that affect land-use, medium-term choices such as vehicle ownership, and short-term choices such as travel mode choice that
affect travel demand. Prior research in this area has been limited by the complexities associated with the development of
integrated model systems that combine the long-, medium- and short-term choices into a unified analytical framework. This
paper presents an integrated simultaneous multi-dimensional choice model of residential location, auto ownership, bicycle
ownership, and commute tour mode choices using a mixed multidimensional choice modeling methodology. Model estimation results
using the San Francisco Bay Area highlight a series of interdependencies among the multi-dimensional choice processes. The
interdependencies include: (1) self-selection effects due to observed and unobserved factors, where households locate based
on lifestyle and mobility preferences, (2) endogeneity effects, where any one choice dimension is not exogenous to another,
but is endogenous to the system as a whole, (3) correlated error structures, where common unobserved factors significantly
and simultaneously impact multiple choice dimensions, and (4) unobserved heterogeneity, where decision-makers show significant
variation in sensitivity to explanatory variables due to unobserved factors. From a policy standpoint, to be able to forecast
the “true” causal influence of activity-travel environment changes on residential location, auto/bicycle ownership, and commute
mode choices, it is necessary to capture the above-identified interdependencies by jointly modeling the multiple choice dimensions
in an integrated framework. 相似文献
