The analysis of travel time variability (TTV) is attracting attention among policy makers due to the increasing awareness that users assign a high value to level-of-service attributes. In this paper, the TTV of cars and ...

The value of travel time (VOT) is defined as the marginal rate of substitution between travel time and travel cost, and it is typically calculated using standard econometric techniques. However, it is very common for both ...

Reliability is understood in public transport as the certainty travellers have regarding the level of service they will experience when travelling. The travel time, waiting time, or the comfort level they will experience ...

Public transport systems with electronic fare collection devices continuously store data related to trips taken by users, which contain valuable information for planning and policy analysis. However, if the card is not ...

In this paper we study the time-dependent profitable tour problem with resource constraints (TDPTPRC), a generalization of the profitable tour problem (PTP) which includes variable travel times to account for road congestion. ...

Congestion in large cities and populated areas is one of the major challenges in urban logistics, andshould be addressed at different planning and operational levels. The Time Dependent Travelling Sales-man Problem (TDTSP) ...

Time use models have been used to estimate the value of leisure - one of the components of the value of travel time savings - usually accepting that sleep duration is an exogenous variable. In this paper, we depart from ...

A stated preference experiment is developed looking at airplane and a fictitious high-speed train trips between Santiago and Concepcion in Chile. Four variables are used - travel time, fare, comfort, and service delay; a ...

Public transport is affected by different types of randomness which impact the reliability they offer. The source of this randomness may come, for example, from casual uncertainty sources, such as accidents or protests, ...
