What is it about?

Travelers’ mode switching decision under en-trip ‘auto drive & subway park-and-ride’ multimodal information was modeled. A panel econometric model quantifies the impacts of information. Correlations of observations among a same driver is addressed. Random taste for time savings and comfort level of subway car is addressed. Personal attributes that affect mode switch decision are revealed.
