With the ever increasing number of opportunities, in every aspect of modem life, making choices becomes part of our daily routine. It is thus only natural that social scientists have started to study human choice behavior. Early efforts focused on modeling aggregate choice patterns of home buyers, shoppers, travelers, and others. Later studies, aiming to achieve more realistic results, have concentrated on simula ting disaggregate behavior. The most recent approach in choice research is the so-called Discrete Choice Modeling. It is a front-line area mainly in contemporary transportation, geography, and behavioral research. It focuses on individuals' decision-making processes regarding the choice of destinations, modes, departure times, and routes. Considerable research has been done on identifying and quantify ing the general rules governing the individuals' choice behavior, but to the best of our knowledge there is no single book that solely deals with route choice. The study of travelers' route choice in networks is primarily oriented towards gaining insight into their spatial choice behavior. How do people choose routes in a network, what do they know, what do they look for, which road characteristics playa role? On the basis of this information it is possible to design quantitative models aimed at predicting the use of routes dependent on the characteristics of the routes, those of the surrounding environment, and those of the travelers. In this way, traffic flows in the network can be calculated and the network performance can be evaluated.

A positive sign on the path size attribute indicates that the route with less similarity with the alternatives is more likely to be chosen. Trips going to home are the least sensitive to the travel time and right turns than the other trips. Compared to home-based trips, non-home-based trips are less sensitive to intersections and time on local roads. On average, the expected overlaps (probabilistic routes) with the chosen route are similar to the deterministic overlaps (shortest time path). Also, there is a probability of about 50% that the predicted route will outperform the shortest time path. We envision this study as an important contribution towards the development of empirically rich route choice models. With increasing numbers of GPS surveys and benefits of using high-resolution roadway network, the availability of computationally efficient automatic procedures to generate the chosen routes and alternatives is critical. Further, the examination of route choice behavior in terms of travelers' demographics provides more insight into the route choice decisions.

This book investigates the mutual influence between route choice and signal control. Starting from a theoretical basis, a number of control strategies are developed, which are subsequently tested on real-life networks. The potential for an integration of route guidance and signal control offers benefits over other systems separately. A model framework for route guidance simulation is proposed, which is used to test the development strategies, in order to assess the potential of integrated route guidance for several examples derived from real-life situations.

In recent years information systems are being designed to assist people to make more efficient travel choices under conditions of growing uncertainty. Although travel demand modelers have analyzed the response to real-time information, usually this has been done under the questionable assumptions of rational decision-making. In reality, people can make completely different choices when their decisions are based on information or on experience. Improving behavioral assumptions could well increase the realism of transport demand models. This book describes an experimental approach to study route choice with real-time information. It provides both researchers and practitioners with valuable knowledge on the roles of information and learning in travel behavior and how statistics and state-of-the art discrete choice models can be applied to analyze and model travel behavior in risky and uncertain environments. This book will be especially useful to transportation policy makers and analysts, researchers and students.

Travel demand emerges from individual decisions. These decisions, depending on individual objectives, preferences, experiences and spatial knowledge about travel, are both heterogeneous and evolutionary. Research emerging from fields such as road pricing and ATIS requires travel demand models that are able to consider travelers with distinct attributes (value of time (VOT), willingness to pay, travel budgets, etc.) and behavioral preferences (e.g. willingness to switch routes with potential savings) in a differentiated market (by tolls and the level of service). Traditional trip-based models have difficulty in dealing with the aforementioned heterogeneity and issues such as equity. Moreover, the role of spatial information, which has significant influence on decision-making and travel behavior, has not been fully addressed in existing models. To bridge the gap, this paper proposes to explicitly model the formation and spreading of spatial knowledge among travelers. An Agent-based Route Choice (ARC) model was developed to track choices of each decision-maker on a road network over time and map individual choices into macroscopic flow pattern. ARC has been applied on both Sioux Falls network and Chicago sketch network. Comparison between ARC and existing models (UE and SUE) on both networks shows ARC is valid and computationally tractable. To be brief, this paper specifically focuses on the route choice behavior, while the proposed model can be extended to other modules of travel demand under an integrated framework.

A behaviourally realistic description of route choice behaviour should consider variables that are both observable, such as travel time and cost, and unobservable, such as attitudes, perceptions, spatial abilities and network knowledge. This book focuses on route choice behaviour by analyzing spatial ability indicators and modelling route choices of individuals driving habitually from home to their workplace. This book presents the web-based survey designed to collect spatial ability information and observed route choices among morning commuters, the application of factor analysis to extract latent factors related to route choice behaviour, the comparison between path generation techniques and the estimation of route choice models with specifications that considered level-of-service variables and latent constructs from the factor analysis. Route choice modellers, transport planners and urban planners would benefit from results suggesting that the development of instruments to assess individual traits and the refinement of choice model structures would allow better prediction of route choice behaviour and better organization of congestion countermeasures.
