This article aims at reviewing MaaS representation in existing academic literature pertaining to transportation modelling, in order to assess its progress and identify trajectories for future improvements. We do so by considering mobility as an economic system in which MaaS interacts with both travel demand and supply. After identifying an adequate set of indicators to analyze MaaS models, we review 31 contributions and find out that most studies consist of demand-centered usage models while the integration of the system's supply side's operational and profitability factors is still lacking, especially in-MaaS financial flows.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45761,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Transportation","volume":"39 ","pages":"Article 100368"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212012224000273/pdfft?md5=2310529996f333579ec20ce90ca1c0b0&pid=1-s2.0-S2212012224000273-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141595757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper analyzes the impact of new HSR openings on car traffic, using a Generalized and Staggered Difference-in-Difference approach. Unlike previous studies, we analyzes the entire Spanish HSR network. We matched the georeferenced data on car traffic with the origin–destination routes provided by Google Maps API to estimate the impact of the HSR on car traffic. We found that the HSR has not generated modal split, except for few of the HSR segments, in which we estimated a 6%–8% reduction in the annual average daily traffic.

While some of these empty trips can be attributed to load imbalances, it is common to observe the flow of empty trucks in both directions of a route. This paper introduces a microeconomic model aimed at providing a deeper understanding of the flow of empty vehicles beyond load imbalances and its implications for freight flows, transport prices, and the number of carriers in the free-entry equilibrium. Our approach captures shippers’ preferences when selecting carriers within a system comprising two locations with cargo flow in both directions. The model incorporates price competition among carriers and the production of differentiated services, as shippers perceive carriers’ services in a heterogeneous manner. Given that carriers lack knowledge of shippers’ preferences, these are represented using a random utility model. The model enables the determination and comparison of equilibrium conditions with the social optimum. The results show that: (1) The transportation of goods results in not only empty vehicles due to imbalanced loads but also a natural occurrence of empty vehicles due to the stochastic demand patterns. (2) When a new carrier enters the market, it contributes to the negative impact of empty vehicles through the business stealing effect. (3) Empty trips disrupt the balance of prices and carriers, creating a gap between the free-entry equilibrium and the socially optimal values. (4) By coordinating carriers’ operations, the flow of empty vehicles due to the business stealing effect can be minimized, moving the system towards the socially optimal outcome.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45761,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Transportation","volume":"39 ","pages":"Article 100361"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141294731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The excess capacity is primarily influenced by factors such as uncertain demand, airline competition, airport pricing strategies, and the market structure of the airport industry. However, airport business practices also account for this issue. Using data from 59 U.S. airports between 2009 and 2019, we found that residual airports have less unused capacity than compensatory airports. This can be explained by the control of signatory airlines over the residual airports’ investment decisions and the lack of retained earnings under the residual agreement. We did not detect a significant difference in excess capacity between single-purpose and multipurpose governance forms. However, it is noteworthy that large hub airports exhibit higher capacity utilization compared to medium hub airports. Airports dominated by LCCs have higher capacity utilization rates, while the unused capacity remains consistent between cargo and non-cargo airports.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45761,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Transportation","volume":"38 ","pages":"Article 100353"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140133836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
