Abstract
There are land uses that are substantial trip attractors during the morning commuting peak hour. However universities are unique in the existence of several additional traffic peaks during a day. A model for students' moped flow based on parking congestion cost and arrival (departure) time is proposed and validated. The model is theoretically formulated considering the equilibrium conditions and numerically validated using a bidirectional, real dataset collected and classified on the road connecting the Kawauchi and Aobayama Campuses of Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan. This model captures the effect of congestion such as the presented on the parking lots; and also, the effect of the queue in terms of psychological discomfort.
