Abstract

Trip-level household travel surveys (HTS) are an efficient and widely used instrument in transport planning and research and are expected to remain in this role for at least the near future. Mode information is typically assigned to trips in these surveys based on a hierarchy of transport modes that hides important information on the individual stages which is particularly relevant for walking. This study develops a methodology for estimating detailed stage-level information for trip-level HTS that contain some information on stages, this is the sequence of used transport modes and the number of transfers in Public Transport (PT) trips. The methodology is developed based on detailed stage-level data from a sub-sample in the German National HTS MiD 2017 and directly applied to the German city-based HTS SrV 2018 which is a trip-level survey but contains stage-level information on modes and PT transfers. Linear Regression Models for estimating walking stage duration in PT and car trips are combined with simple heuristic estimations for the less frequent types of intermodal trips. Trip purpose, accompaniment and total trip duration are important predictors for walking stage duration. Trip-level and stage-level modal-split figures for the number, duration, and distance of trips and stages in SrV 2018 are computed with the developed methodology. About half of all stages and 30% of trips are done by walking. Walking stage duration is with around 38% considerable, this share drops to around 12% for walking stage distance.

期刊介绍： In our first issue, published in 1972, we explained that this Journal is intended to promote the free and vigorous exchange of ideas and experience among the worldwide community actively concerned with transportation policy, planning and practice. That continues to be our mission, with a clear focus on topics concerned with research and practice in transportation policy and planning, around the world. These four words, policy and planning, research and practice are our key words. While we have a particular focus on transportation policy analysis and travel behaviour in the context of ground transportation, we willingly consider all good quality papers that are highly relevant to transportation policy, planning and practice with a clear focus on innovation, on extending the international pool of knowledge and understanding. Our interest is not only with transportation policies - and systems and services – but also with their social, economic and environmental impacts, However, papers about the application of established procedures to, or the development of plans or policies for, specific locations are unlikely to prove acceptable unless they report experience which will be of real benefit those working elsewhere. Papers concerned with the engineering, safety and operational management of transportation systems are outside our scope.
