Ground Transportation at Airports: Ridehailing Uptake and Travel Shifts to Test Mode Choice Modeling Assumption
- National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Golden, CO (United States)
Ground transportation at airports poses a unique opportunity to understand mode shifts after introduction of ride-hailing services. Using five years of monthly transaction data for five modes (transit, parking, car rental, taxis, and ride-hailing) at the Seattle-Tacoma and Denver airports, this paper presents findings on how ride-hailing uptake impacts mode share for ground transportation trips to and from the airport. More specifically, the results explore how well the Independence of Irrelevant Alternatives facilitates estimation and forecasts prediction used in travel demand modeling for the uptake of new modes, as simply drawing from present modes in proportion to their existing shares.
