Discrete Choice Methods and their Applications to Short Term Travel Decisions

Modeling travel behavior is a key aspect of demand analysis, where aggregate demand is the accumulation of individuals’ decisions. In this chapter, we focus on “short-term” travel decisions. The most important short-term travel decisions include choice of destination for a non-work trip, choice of travel mode, choice of departure time and choice of route. It is important to note that short-term decisions are conditional on long-term travel and mobility decisions such as car ownership and residential and work locations.
