Title: DERIVING THE TRAFFIC CONSEQUENCES OF AIRPORT LOCATION ALTERNATIVES
Accession Number: 00228038
Record Type: Component
Abstract: THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVES OF THE RESEARCH REPORTED IN THIS PAPER WERE TO STRUCTURE THE AIRPORT LOCATION PROCESS AND TO DEVELOP A METHODOLOGY FOR DERIVING THE TRAFFIC CONSEQUENCES OF VARIOUS AIRPORT LOCATION ALTERNATIVES. A NUMBER OF INTERCONNECTED ANALYSES WERE IDENTIFIED IN THE LOCATION PROCEDURE, INCLUDING DEMAND FORECASTING, CONSTRAINT RECOGNITION, COST ESTIMATES, AND AIRPORT LOCATION EVALUATION. A DEMAND MODEL BASED ON SYSTEMS ENGINEERING CONCEPTS WAS PRESENTED. LINEAR GRAPH ANALYSIS WAS USED TO DESCRIBE MATHEMATICALLY THE TRAVEL VOLUMES ON EACH LINK OF THE INTERCITY TRAVEL NETWORK. IT WAS SHOWN THAT BY USING THE COMPLEMENTARY TRAVEL PRESSURE VARIABLE, THE TRAFFIC CONSEQUENCES OF VARIOUS AIRPORT LOCATIONS ON THE SHORT-HAUL TRAVEL MARKET COULD BE DERIVED. FINALLY, THE RESULTS OF THE MODEL WERE USED TO DETERMINE THE USER TRAVEL BENEFITS ASSOCIATED WITH EACH OF THREE TORONTO AIRPORT LOCATION ALTERNATIVES. /AUTHOR/
