Análise de alternativas de transporte de passageiro em relação ao custo e tempo de viagem

Abstract

The transportation planning must take into account the quality of life of the community and its users. It is believed that the cost and the quality of service offered are decisive factors in the selection of alternatives by users. Thus, the study presents a procedure for understanding the transport modal choice of passenger according to two attributes: time and travel cost. This study aims, through a sensitivity analysis, to understand the likely behavior of passengers and their alternatives through permutation of collective and individual options. The application of the methodological procedure enhances the understanding of the behavior of passengers on its available means of transport. The Sensitivity Analysis tool allows transportation planners to realize that the choice of alternative transport is closely related to the individual's family income.
