“…Some of the literature has studied the economic promotion effect of HSR from industry and labor markets. Studies in this area include the impacts of HSR on commuting and wages in urban labor [41,42], the impacts of HSR on population growth and population welfare [43][44][45][46], and the promotion impacts of HSR on industrial agglomeration and industrial development [47][48][49]. However, these studies focus more on the specific economic results of HSR on industry, employment, and wage other than the impact paths.…”

To give full play to the role of high-speed rail (HSR) in promoting sustainable economic development, the models that can calculate and describe the impacts of HSR on the sustainable economy are required. However, little attention has been paid so far to building such models. To address this, the paper puts forward the definition of sustainable economic development, especially that of China. Based on the definition, the paper proposes the indicators of sustainable economic development for China from industry and labor force perspectives. Compared with the previous literature, these indicators take into account the behavior of enterprises and labor forces as individuals rather than as groups, which is more explanatory. HSR, as the main factor to improve the level of transportation technology and accessibility, is incorporated into the analytical framework. Then, we build decision-making behavior models of single enterprise and labor force under market equilibrium to get the relationship between HSR and indicators. Compared with the previous literature, the methods within the paper not only fully consider the interests of enterprises and labor forces, but also considers the interaction between industries and the trade of commodities in different cities/regions. The evidence from the central part of China shows that the model can effectively reveal the relationship between HSR and indicators. The paper gives new perspectives to study the relationship between HSR and sustainable economic development. Based on the findings herein, we offer recommendations for how HSR can promote sustainable economic development effectively.

“…This parameter has a negative sign, as the probability a certain location is chosen as destination drops with each additional minute of travel time. The value of ß may vary depending on mode or household type and is usually calibrated based on survey data (Geurs and van Wee 2004;Cheng and Bertolini 2013;Reggiani et al 2011a). …”

In recent years, the city of Munich has become more crowded due to its strong job market and its popularity as a tourist destination, resulting in a shortage of affordable housing and a strained transport network. It became evident that the city of Munich could not solve these problems alone, and would need close cooperation with neighboring municipalities that considered the various stakeholders. In 2007, this resulted in the formation of the Metropolitan Region of Munich, home to nearly six million people from 27 counties and 6 large cities, and includes 158 participating institutions. In 2009, the TUM Accessibility Atlas was developed for this newly formed region after numerous discussions with a variety of regional stakeholders who described their needs in assessing land-use and transport measures. The major task of this tool was to meet these needs and support this diverse region find a common regional identity.Keywords Accessibility . Accessibility instruments . PSS . Governance . Decisionmaking . Accessibility planning The TUM Accessibility Atlas brings together various scientific measures of accessibility that have been developed over time and applies them to relevant issues in the field of integrated land use and transport planning. The primary usability issue addressed by this tool is the need for more trust and a shared language between stakeholders. The main planning issue is determining how the region can improve multimodal accessibility, becoming more environmentally sustainable while also identifying spatial and socioeconomic disparities to address. Given these purposes, the TUM Accessibility Atlas was set up as a GIS toolbox, capable of producing maps for specific case studies and their thematic issues. The two major datasets are a multi-modal transport network and the structural land-use layers. The public transport network is based on a VISUM transport model imported into a GIS based accessibility instrument. Initially, the street network was initially provided by the Bavarian State Office for Statistics and Data Processing, but later substituted by OpenStreetMap (OSM), due to the flexibility of the open source data and the greater detail available for non-motorized transport modes. The structural component was provided by numerous sources (e.g. gaining suitable data by web survey) which included geo-referenced data on activities and their respective densities. These datasets have been constantly updated and upgraded in line with the current issues of different areas. Over the course of various research projects, new scales and suitable add-on tools have been added. To help visualize spatial and socioeconomic disparities, the TUM Accessibility Atlas has explored the relative accessibility of the region by public vs private transport, mismatches between the population density and public transport service quality, and the vulnerability of the region to future increases in mobility costs. Different methods and scales have been integrated: from micro-scale accessibility within neighborhood...

“…O mesmo se aplica aos indicadores de acessibilidade que possam incluir também a influência das atividades disponíveis em cada localidade, tornando a representação da acessibilidade mais compatível com o desejo de modelar a integração transporte/ uso do solo. Os indicadores expressos nas Equações 01 e 02 são algumas alternativas (Raia Jr., 2000;Reggiani, Bucci, Russo, Haas & Nijkamp, 2011). o 128 | enero 2017 | pp.…”
