Influence of Parking on Train Station Choice under Uncertainty for park-and-ride Users
Abstract This paper presents a station choice model for park and ride (PnR) users based on uncertain parking attributes, such as parking search time (PST). In order to take into account uncertainty in PnR users’ choice process, a mixed logit model...
