This study designed an RP and SP questionnaire based on a trip chain integrating intra- and intercity mobility, focusing on the Hefei metropolitan area in China. Utilizing RP-SP fusion data, an Integrated Choice and Latent Variable framework incorporating random taste heterogeneity and psychological characteristics was developed to investigate travelers' mode choice behavior for conventional train, high-speed rail, intercity bus, private car, and intercity ride-hailing. Findings indicate that intercity in-vehicle time and cost are the most influential factors, with significant heterogeneity among travelers. There is lower satisfaction with the in-vehicle time of trains and buses, and the costs associated with buses and ride-hailing services. Intra-city access time is also crucial, while service attributes like catering and hygiene conditions, Wi-Fi availability show minimal impact. Psychological traits, including safety concern, hedonism, and social anxiety, significantly affect intercity travel preferences. Elasticity analysis suggests that intercity buses’ market growth potential comes mainly from train and ride-hailing consumers.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47810,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Economics","volume":"114 ","pages":"Article 101660"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145417946","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}

Respondents were segmented into three psychographic segments: Time-Sensitive AV Adopters (TSAA), Time-Sensitive AV Hesitators (TSAH), and Cost-Conscious Traditional Actives (CCTA). The market-segmented multinomial logit models for each segment revealed that TSAA respondents demonstrated the highest propensity for SAV adoption, driven by their high valuation of travel time savings and strong acceptance of autonomous technology. Conversely, TSAH displayed cautious optimism toward AV adoption, necessitating assurances regarding service reliability and comfort. CCTA respondents, characterized by strong cost-sensitivity and conservative transportation preferences, exhibited the lowest willingness to adopt SAV. The study highlights the effectiveness of psychographic market segmentation in explaining mode choice behaviors toward SAV.

The installation in their optimal positions enables the highest contribution to be made from them, which is a critical factor for their future success. This study aims to enhance sustainability in the supply chain, promote urban welfare in Istanbul, and achieve Turkey's urban logistics goals by providing two distinct location selection suggestions for the European and Anatolian sides of the city. Accordingly, the problem was solved with a triple-staged approach. The first approach is based on stakeholder viewpoints, utilizing the Analytical Hierarchy Process method with 34 stakeholder participants. The second approach is based on traffic counts and uses the Centre of Gravity. The last one is based on a questionnaire completed by 526 participants, encompassing the views of logistics and supply chain managers and scholars. Utilization of a triple-staged approach enables a technical novelty and provides an elaborate consideration of the problem. The study also notably differs from existing studies by including suitability for parking, a critical issue for reducing driver fatigue and protecting employees and thereby making a significant contribution to social sustainability in the supply chain.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47810,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Economics","volume":"114 ","pages":"Article 101672"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145525721","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}

Given that the spatial distribution of motorways is likely to be endogenous, we use road itineraries of the 18th century as an instrumental variable. Our results suggest that motorways contribute to the fragmentation of urban land into numerous urban patches. Also, we identify important within-municipality heterogenous effects, in that motorways do not cause the contiguous growth of the central urban unit, but contribute in a significant manner to the development of peripheral urban land. There is also some evidence that motorways contribute to an increase in the shape irregularity of urban areas.
