Transportation planning for disasters: an accessibility approach

A methodology is developed in this paper for evaluating and enhancing the performance of urban transportation systems in the aftermath of a disaster. A performance measure is proposed for assessing overall and distributional impacts based on the concept of accessibility. The methodology is demonstrated with two case studies. The first focuses on passenger railroad disruption in the catastrophic...

Accessibility Indicators for Transportation Planning Using GIS

In this paper a method to create GIS-based accessibility indicators is presented. The method allows to create person-by-person and store-by-store (disaggregate) accessibility indicators but also to derive zonal summary (aggregate) indicators that can be used in more traditional transportation planning applications. These indicators have also been used as explanatory variables in person-based tr...

Spatial Behavior in Transportation Modeling and Planning

The recent policy discussions about information technology in transport and trafficdemand management have increased the interest in activity-based approaches to the analysis oftravel behaviour, in particular in the modelling of household activity scheduling which is at thecore of many of the required changes in travel behaviour. The paper is a state-of-the-art reviewof conceptua...
