Estimation of effects of introducing various transport policies in urban areas using an artificial society model

Abstract

In recent years, various transport services such as sharing services of bicycles and electric kickboards, and on-demand buses have been provided. In addition, the introduction of MaaS, which integrates these transport modes and regards mobility as a service, is also advanced. In the study, an artificial society model is used to examine the appropriate combination of transport services in urban areas. The target area is the southeastern part of Osaka city where services such as Imazato Liner (BRT) and on-demand bus are provided.
