This paper aimed at developing advanced Logit discrete choice models with several individual and mode attributes affecting the prediction of individual choice. The models have been applied to Port-Said (PS) city and have been used to investigate innovative transport systems such as Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) as a hypothetical mode situation beside the regular modes of transport (car and taxi). The methodology provides data collection of PS transportation mode system and develops Multinomial Logit Model (MNL), Nested Logit Model (NL), and Mixed Logit Model (MXL) using Visual-tm Software. The survey was formed by the Stated Preference (SP) technique conducted for individuals from all PS zones and the predictable travel mode choice behavior was analyzed. The findings showed that in PS, income is the most important attribute affecting the mode choice behavior model. The high values and positive signs of income parameters indicate that the higher income earners are more likely to use private car than taxi or bus. Contrary to most cases in developed countries, out-of-vehicle time that represents the accessibility shows higher impacts than the in-vehicle time as a result of poor access facilities in developing countries. |
