The results reveal three groups with considerable heterogeneity in preferences: the group accepting <em>trade-offs</em>, the <em>lone-wolves,</em> and the <em>sociable.</em> The <em>trade-off</em> group do not want to share transport, but are positive towards autonomous vehicles, and make trade-offs between these characteristics and costs. The members in the <em>lone-wolves</em> group are only concerned about not travelling in a shared transport. Members in the smallest <em>sociable</em> group are positive about sharing transports but reject autonomous vehicles. Women are overrepresented in the <em>sociable</em> group, as are people with environmental concern and those who lack a driver's licence.

Based on the stated-preference survey data, this study addresses this oversight by developing latent class nested logit models to simultaneously accommodate individuals' preference heterogeneity and the potential substitution effects among coach, normal-speed train, high-speed train, and airline. Two distinct latent market segments were identified: <em>Pro-convenience</em> and <em>Pro-experience</em>, each displaying unique travel preferences measured by elasticity, first difference and willingness-to-pay. Influential factors in mode choice were found to be travel cost, access time, in-vehicle time, service frequency, and seat comfort, while females showing a higher preference for seat comfort. Advance arrival time, defined as the pre-departure waiting period at the station or airport, was found to be an insignificant factor for student travellers' mode choices.

This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of the public transportation system using an explainable data envelopment analysis approach. Specifically, data envelopment analysis and explainable artificial intelligence techniques were incorporated to uncover the black-box relationship between the inputs and outputs of the efficiency score. The efficiency of the public transportation system was defined as travel times for subway, bus, and multimodal modes relative to the number of trips and travel distances. The efficiency score was evaluated by the origin-destination pair unit. As a result, the efficiency score was estimated to be 0.69 on average, indicating that a reduction of 31% in travel times is required to achieve a perfect score of 1.00. Among the 33,313 origin-destination pairs, 39 had a perfect score of 1.00. The results of the interpretation model showed the order of importance for features—buses, subways, and multimodal modes—with SHapley Additive Explanations values of 0.047, 0.029, and 0.022, respectively. These results suggest that focusing primarily on reducing bus travel times is effective for improving overall efficiency. In this manner, the explainable data envelopment analysis helps measure performance, understand results, and suggest improvement directions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47810,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Economics","volume":"108 ","pages":"Article 101491"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142653342","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}

To address this challenge, several cities have implemented subsidies. Understanding the effectiveness of these subsidies is crucial, particularly in cities where a substantial portion of the population, especially those with low incomes, rely on public transport systems. This paper presents a case study conducted in Bogotá, Colombia, employing a randomized controlled field experiment involving 1607 participants. In this intervention, a randomly selected group of frequent public transport users received a cash transfer on their travel cards (a transport voucher) for four months. We aim to estimate the causal effects of providing these vouchers on ridership and affordability. The findings indicate that vouchers on average, increased ridership by up to 9% compared to the control group. This increase was most pronounced on weekdays and during peak hours. Vouchers proved particularly advantageous for populations with low fare-demand elasticity, who constitute the primary users of public transport. Furthermore, it improved their affordability by between 18 and 26%. In summary, our results indicate that providing subsidies in the form of vouchers can effectively boost public transport usage, thereby enhancing affordability for users.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47810,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Economics","volume":"108 ","pages":"Article 101492"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142653381","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}
