Abstract
This paper attempts to propose departure time choice model of travelers for going to city centre based on disutility that derived from three processes of going to a place for an activity. The first is leaving home process: process from leaving home or origin to arrival at the place or destination in city centre. The second is staying at the activity place: process from arrival at the destination to the leaving the place to return home. The third is returning home: process from leaving destination to arrival at home. The model was applied to the people who went to a city centre for daily shopping. By a goodness of fit test, it was revealed the proposed model was acceptable. The model is to be applied to develop a mode choice model in further studies.
