Accommodating Perceptual Conditioning in the Valuation of Expected Travel Time Savings for Cars and Public Transport
Published 2013-01-01Travel time variability (i.e., random variations in travel time) leads to a travel time distribution for a repeated trip from a fixed origin to destination (e.g., from home to work). To represent travel time variability, ...Article -
Accounting for Attribute Non-Attendance and Common-Metric Aggregation in a Probabilistic Decision Process Mixed Multinomial Logit Model: A Warning on Potential Confounding
Published 2013-01-01Latent class models offer an alternative perspective to the popular mixed logit form, replacing the continuous distribution with a discrete distribution in which preference heterogeneity is captured by membership of distinct ...Article -
Accounting for travel time variability in the optimal pricing of cars and buses
Published 2014-01-01A number of studies have shown that in addition to the common influences on mode, route and time of day of travel choices such as travel time and cost, travel time variability plays an increasingly important role, especially ...Article -
Advanced modelling of commuter choice model and work from home during COVID-19 restrictions in Australia
Published 2022The decision to work from home (WFH) or to commute during COVID-19 is having a major structural impact on individuals' travel, work and lifestyle. There are many possible factors influencing this non-marginal change, some ...Article -
Attribute processing as a behavioural strategy in choice making
Published 2014-01-01Choice modelling is an increasingly important technique for forecasting and valuation, with applications in fields such as transportation, health and environmental economics. for this reason it has attracted attention from ...Book chapter -
Australia 6 months After COVID-19 Restrictions Part 2: The Impact of Working from Home
Published 2021This paper (Part 2 in the paper series), building on earlier studies examining the Australian response, extends on findings related to travel activity, commuting, and attitudes towards COVID-19 measures (Part 1 in the paper ...Article -
Australia 6 months After COVID-19 Restrictions- Part 1: Changes to Travel Activity and Attitude to Measures
Published 2021While many countries have experienced more than one wave of the pandemic throughout 2020, Australia has been able to contain the virus in a way that makes it a stand out (with New Zealand) in the way that it has been ...Article -
Behavioural implications of preferences, risk attitudes and beliefs in modelling risky travel choice with travel time variability
Published 2013-01-01The appropriate interpretation of a behavioural outcome requires allowing for risk attitude and belief of an individual, in addition to identification of preferences. This paper develops an Attribute-Specific Extended ...Article -
A Business Model Perspective to Understand Intra-firm Transitions: From traditional to flexible public transport services
Published 2020Socio technological transition with respect to innovations is a broader concept and generally is theorized as such. It is, therefore, unclear how at the micro level the business firms within an industry is restructuring ...Conference paper -
Complementing Distance based Charges with Discounted Registration Fees in the Reform of Road User Charges: the Impact for Motorists and Government Revenue
Published 2014-01-01The call for a congestion charge is getting louder and more frequent in many countries as major metropolitan areas experience increasing levels of road congestion. This is often accompanied by a recognition that governments ...Article -
Congestion Charging and Car Use: A Review of Stated Preference and Opinion Studies
Published 2012-01-01This paper reviews 17 published congestion pricing studies with a focus on the dimensions of the stated preference or opinion survey, especially the type of charging regime and the structure of the charge. The effectiveness ...Article -
Contrasts of Relative Advantage Maximisation with Random Utility Maximisation and Regret Minimisation
Published 2015-01-01This paper discusses the theoretical properties and the empirical application of an improved version of the ‘relative advantage maximising’ (RAM) model. This model shares several desirable features of a set of models based ...Article -
Crowding in public transport systems: effects on users, operation and implications for the estimation of demand
Published 2013-01-01The effects of high passenger density at bus stops, at rail stations, inside buses and trains are diverse. This paper examines the multiple dimensions of passenger crowding related to public transport demand, supply and ...Article -
Crowding in Public Transport: A Review of Objective and Subjective Measures
Published 2013-01-01Crowding in public transport is becoming a growing concern as demand grows at a rate that is outstripping available capacity. To capture the user benefits associated with reduced crowding from improved public transport, ...Article -
Data challenges: more behavioural and (relatively) less statistical – a think piece
Published 2015-01-01The study of traveller behaviour has blossomed into a multi-disciplinary array of theories, methods and data paradigms all aimed at improving our understanding of drivers of passenger and freight movement in time and space. ...Article -
