Abstract
This paper aims to clarify urban development potentiality in term of the total number of vehicle trips under an anti global warming policy on which CO2 emission should not exceed urban transportation environmental capacity. Regarding to the CO2 emission environmental capacity implementation, authorities and users have different attitudes that is, authorities want steady urban economic growth while considering to reduce CO2 emission, on the other hand, users always eager to minimize their costs on various activities. Therefore, in order to examine maximum possible increase in the vehicle trips generated in association with urban economic activities subjecting to urban transportation CO2 emission environmental capacity constrain, a bilevel model that combined authorities and users intention, is proposed. And the model is verified on a real urban network of Chengdu, China.
