“…Engaging understandable and consistent access metrics is the cornerstone to gear the LVC method from the early planning stage, and thereby introducing and promoting an accessbased land value benefit assessment method are in demand. This method is rooted in the consensus that the primary motivation of transport development is facilitating access to desired places instead of shortening travel time, which can be found in studies by Levinson and Wu (2020) and Levine et al (2019) and was empirically tested by Sun et al (2016) in Tianjin, Wen et al (2018) in Hangzhou, Lin and Hwang (2004) in Taipei, Hiironen et al (2015) in Helsinki, Dewees (1976) in Toronto, Agostini and Palmucci (2008) in Santiago, Hess and Almeida (2007) in Buffalo, Du and Mulley (2012) in Newcastle, and Dubé et al (2013) in Montreal, and Wang and Levinson (2022) in New York, among others. The value of access derives from its ability to connect places and people, which depends on the location of people and the directness, speed, and, in the case of transit, frequency of the transport network (Istrate and Levinson, 2011).…”
