Abstract:

For this paper, a case study was conducted for the evaluation of journey time reliability for access routes from Kure City to Hiroshima Airport, focusing on ordinary roads, and the following results were obtained. First, while many road users take the effect of delays due to possible accidents into account, around 10 percent of them have had the experience of missing their flight, indicating that there is a limit to the risks of delay that can be factored in by users when they travel. Second, on adopting a route choice model that incorporates buffer time as the journey time reliability indicator, and since the model was found to be significant, its results demonstrate that journey time reliability has a substantial influence on traffic behavior. Third, the sum of the monetary values of time and journey time reliability calculated from the route choice model amounted to be around 80 yen/minute.
