Development of a Conceptual Framework for Modeling train station choice under uncertainty for park and ride users

The aim of the study is to develop a conceptual framework for modeling the parkand ride (PnR) users’ departure station choice under uncertainty with consideration of threeuncertain variables: travel time to the departure station; parking search time and crowding ontrains. Research on station choice...

description The aim of the study is to develop a conceptual framework for modeling the parkand ride (PnR) users’ departure station choice under uncertainty with consideration of threeuncertain variables: travel time to the departure station; parking search time and crowding ontrains. Research on station choice under uncertainty is systematically reviewed to providebackground to understand this study. A decision making process of train station choice and amethod to determine train station choice are developed, which lay a foundation for modelingframework. Finally, a group of utility functions of train station choice based on the uncertainvariables are developed under a discrete choice model framework using the prospect theory.This paper provides a theoretical guideline for modeling train station choice underuncertainty.
