A LOGIT based Traffic Assignment Model Considering Passenger Transfer on Railway Network

Abstract

In our study, we present a new LOGIT-based traffic assignment model applicable to intercity railway network.Most traffic assignment models have been developed for public transit assignment in urban area, so that they are known to produce unrealistic results in intercity railway demand analysis. Especially, since the introduction of KTX, more passengers are using a route including KTX service and the schedule becomes more compatible with transfer. Our study presents a new LOGIT-based traffic assignment model considering passenger transfer. To do so, we suggest a new route search algorithm to find K paths with non increasing order in the utility value.
