Object of this study is to predict the ‘Probability of Shift’ to the proposed metro corridor from two-wheeler, car, bus and suburban rail in Chennai. To achieve this, a Stated Preference survey questionnaire was prepared and survey was conducted among two-wheeler users; car users; bus users and suburban rail users through face-to-face interview method. The collected SP data were coded, analysed and mode-wise/ trip-based binary logit models were developed using Statistical Software Tools (SST) software. From the developed models, it is observed that irrespective of mode & trip purposes, the choice of metro is fully driven by the proposed metro fare. From the predicted Probability of Shift, it is observed that car users are more willing to switch to metro as well as relatively price sensitive when comparing with other mode users.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
