The literature on acceptability of road pricing schemes is reviewed, and a number of limitations of that research are identified. In particular, little evidence is found of the differences between users and non-users and the effects of scheme design and level of charge. A stated preference...

Numerous travel demand studies have been carried out over the past five decades, many of which produce estimates of the value of travel time. This includes a rich body of largely unpublished evidence, which can provide valuable insights into the impact of variables such as GDP, travel distance,...

The aim of this research was to extend direct demand models to analyse elasticity variation in more detail, and in particular to examine the interaction between rail and competing modes. Relatively little is known about the interaction between modes in the inter-urban travel market. We have...

This paper reports the findings of an economic evaluation of fares regulation options for Britain's railways. The evaluation is based on the development of an econometric demand model based on a large scale survey of passenger preferences. The model was applied to comprehensive case study...

To date, forecasts of the demand impacts of lateness and reliability have been derived largely from individual-level models taken at a snapshot in time. The contribution of this paper is to develop a dynamic model of rail demand at the market-level, yielding short and long-run elasticities with...

A large amount of evidence has been amassed in Great Britain on the values of time and a wide range of service quality attributes. This paper reports meta-analysis of a large number of valuations of these attributes, including in-vehicle time, walk time, wait time, service headway, interchange,...
