Transportation and Land Use Modeling in the Context of Microeconomic Behavior Theory

Abstract

Recently, transportation demand estimation model and land use model is developed based on microeconomics theory in the field of infrastructure planning. The purpose of this study is construct transportation and land use model that integrate these two model that developed for these independence. By this modeling, we can consider change of attending office behavior between cities due to transportation investment in this model. And, its benefit is easy to defined and measured. Finally, The practicality of this model is shown by numerical simulation.
