“…In the last years several interventions have been carried out on the urban rail network with the opening of new rail lines and of many stations both in the central and peripheral areas of the city of Naples (Cascetta et al, 2011).…”

“…For transport modes such as the HSR system, it loses representativeness because of the lower frequency and important variations in the number of services depending on the time of the day. In those cases, the convenience of timetables becomes a key factor [21,22], especially when travelling for a weekend, because people usually organise their journeys and purchase train tickets some time in advance [12]. Therefore, timetables are much more important than frequencies in this transport mode.…”

Abstract:The present paper focuses on an analysis of the efficiency of High-Speed Rail (HSR) connections in comparison to private vehicles, with the aim of identifying the most convenient mode of transportation for weekend tourism journeys. This efficiency is centred on a person based assessment and will depend on the time available at the destination, the convenience of the timetables and travel times, and the associated costs related to accommodations and travel expenses. Because travel costs may amount to a significant share of the total expenses for recreational travel, individuals and groups may consider using a car to reach their destination, especially for journeys of short distances. However, the development of the HSR system in Spain provides an important increase in accessibility that is generating changes in the way people travel. The accessibility of the HSR service has brought an interesting alternative whose attractiveness (in terms of comfort and speed) rises with the distance travelled. In addition, RENFE (Spanish rail operator) is now reorienting its services and fares to compete in the tourism market, improving the competitiveness of HSR for weekend tourism trips relative to other transport modes.In this framework, the paper demonstrates that HSR is a real alternative, in terms of connection efficiencies, for weekend journeys, as almost half of the Spanish cities served by HSR are more efficiently connected to Madrid through HSR than by private cars. In addition, the paper offers a person-based approach that should be taken into account in future research on transport mode choices.

“…Indeed they foster the use of car with respect to the public system. Line 1 connects the north of the city with the metro station of Piscinola/Scampia to the west and with Garibaldi station, which in turn connects the national railways with the High Speed Rail system [5], passing through the hilly area of the borough of Vomero and the old city center. It serves a total of 17 stations covering a distance of 18 km.…”

Abstract:In this paper a before and after analysis of the impacts of the inauguration of a new metro station in Garibaldi square in Naples in Italy will be presented. This station is part of Line 1 and it was inaugurated in January 2014. Moreover, many interventions have been carried out in Garibaldi square, surrounding the station. Therefore a reorganization of the whole transportation system connecting this new strategic node was necessary.Two surveys have been undertaken with the objective of understanding these impacts. Indeed the first one aimed at identifying the present circulation scheme and the one induced by the inauguration of the station. The second one aimed at quantifying the entity of traffic flows in "critical points", by counting the vehicles during peak periods. From these surveys, it has come out that in the peak morning period (7am-10am) 6,000 vehicles have been counted towards the rail node Garibaldi. This value decreases of almost 15% in the afternoon peak period (12am-3pm) as well as in the evening one (5pm-8pm). A simulation model has been implemented as well in order to estimate future scenarios promoted by the local administration. Indeed the access to the square and to the surrounding areas (where the CBD and the historical centre are placed) changes completely
