Halton sequences were first introduced in the 1960s as an alternative to pseudo-random number sequences, with the aim of providing better coverage of the area of integration and negative correlation in the simulated probabilities between observations. This is needed in order to achieve variance...

As a result of increasing road congestion and road pricing, modelling the temporal response of travellers to transport policy interventions has rapidly emerged as a major issue in many practical transport planning studies. A substantial body of research is therefore being carried out to...

The nature of ethnic residential clustering involves different population segments which through their location decisions influence the spatial patterns of ethnic settlements. Understanding the differences in the residential behaviour of a heterogeneous population and, in particular, the tastes...

In this paper, we describe part of an ongoing study of airport choice for passengers departing from the San Francisco Bay area. The aim of the present paper is to test for the prevalence of taste heterogeneity across travellers, using the Mixed Multinomial Logit (MMNL) model. Our results...

The analysis of air-passengers’ choices of departure airport in multi-airport regions is a crucial component of transportation planning in many large metropolitan areas, and has been the topic of an increasing number of studies over recent years. In this paper, we advance the state of the art...

The area of discrete choice modelling has developed rapidly in recent years. In particular, continuing refinements of the Generalised Extreme Value (GEV) model family have permitted the representation of increasingly complex patterns of substitution and parallel advances in estimation capability...

Parking policy is an important component of contemporary travel demand management policies. The effectiveness of many parking policy measures depends on influencing parking type choice, so that understanding the factors affecting these choices is of considerable practical importance. Yet,...
