Title: Investigating the influence of latent lifestyles on productive travels: Insights into designing autonomous transit system

Abstract

As a special case of multitasking, travel-based multitasking typically refers to conducting a set of in-vehicle activities while traveling. Travel-based multitasking has an indisputable influence on offering a pleasant travel experience to transit users during their rides, given that they can use their travel time to perform desirable activities and gain benefits in various form. For instance, the in-activities could help the rider free up time from his/her schedule for the day (i.e., a worthwhile use of travel time). In this study, we investigate how the worthwhileness of a travel-based multitasking could be under the influence of: (1) the transit user’s lifestyle, and (2) socio-demographics, and (3) the characteristics of the transit trip. Towards this, we conducted an intercept survey focusing on the transit trips in the Chicago metropolitan area and analyzed it using latent class modeling approach. Per the results, two classes of transit users could be identified: (1) worthwhileness seekers, productively travelers and (2) leisure seekers, occasional worthwhile travelers. The results also suggest travel time, waiting time and walking distance to the transit station, and the set of in-vehicle activities as significant predictors of worthwhile use of travel time. Finally, the findings provide insights to policymakers for improvingmore »« less

Improving the performance of first- and last-mile mobility services through transit coordination, real-time demand prediction, advanced reservations, and trip prioritization

Journal Article Grahn, Rick ; Qian, Sean ; Hendrickson, Chris - Transportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies

Socio-demographic trends and recent economic development patterns have resulted in travel behavior changes that call for more flexible and accessible public transit options. Because flexible transit services vary in scope, size, and service type, new data-informed methods are useful to optimize services based on the specific needs of local communities and riders. In this study, real-world demand and vehicle trajectory data were used to evaluate and optimize system performance for an existing first-mile–last-mile (FMLM) service in Robinson Township, PA. A general FMLM model for arbitrary demand and service supply was then developed to quantify system performance—both travel time costs andmore »« less

PREFERENCES FOR TRAVEL-BASED MULTITASKING: EVIDENCE FROM A SURVEY AMONG PUBLIC TRANSIT USERS IN THE CHICAGO METROPOLITAN AREA

Journal Article Krueger, Rico ; Rashidi, Taha H. ; Auld, Joshua - Transportation Research, Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour

This paper presents an empirical analysis of a survey among public transit users in the Chicago metropolitan area. The survey collected information about travelers’ general preferences for travel-based multi-tasking during public transit use, revealed preferences for travel-based multi-tasking during a reference trip by public transit in the Chicago metropolitan area and general preferences for travel-based multitasking during the use of ride-hailing services. To analyze the preference data, a rank-ordered logit models is estimated. The findings show that preferences for performing different productive and non-productive tasks while traveling can largely be explained by individual-specific attributes such as age and marital statusmore »« less

Use of Shared Automated Vehicles for First-Mile Last-Mile Service: Micro-Simulation of Rail-Transit Connections in Austin, Texas

Journal Article Huang, Yantao ; Kockelman, Kara M. ; Garikapati, Venu ; ... - Transportation Research Record

Shared fleets of fully automated vehicles (SAVs) coupled with real-time ride-sharing to and from transit stations are of interest to cities and nations in delivering more sustainable transportation systems. By providing first-mile last-mile (FMLM) connections to key transit stations, SAVs can replace walk-to-transit, drive-to-transit, and drive-only trips. Using the SUMO (Simulation of Urban MObility) toolkit, this paper examines mode splits, wait times, and other system features by micro-simulating two fleets of SAVs providing an FMLM ride-sharing service to 10% of central Austin’s trip-makers near five light-rail transit stations. These trips either start or end within two geofenced areas (called automatedmore »« less

Towards Energy Efficient and Shared Mobility Services

Conference Rames, Clement L

Throughout the 20th century, automobiles have shaped urban and suburban landscapes, especially in North America. Globally, the car-centric transportation paradigm has contributed to unprecedented issues in terms of air quality, fossil-fuel dependence, carbon emissions lock-in, traffic congestion, road safety, parking scarcity, serious public health concerns, and socioeconomic inequality. Nonetheless, in the United States the percentage of single-occupant vehicle (SOV) commuters has continued to rise since 1960 while the proportion of carpooling has decreased by more than half since 1980. Evolving mobility services, in conjunction with new behavioral insights, have motivated recent inquiries in how to best foster sustainable growth whilemore »« less

California Smart Traveler System. Final report

Technical Report Behnke, R W

The report describes how audiotex and videotex information systems can be used to develop new modes of public transportation (e.g., parataxis or single-trip carpools) and how these new modes can be integrated with conventional transit, paratransit and ridesharing modes to reduce traffic congestion, gasoline consumption, air pollution and mobility problems at a low cost to taxpayers. This report also describes how these telephone-based information services can be used to develop low-cost, user-friendly Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) that will tell drivers and riders the 'best' ways to get between any two points in an area via either private vehicle ormore »« less
