7 Attributes Included in COMPASS Transportation Networks Time Costs Schedule Public Modes In-Vehicle Time Access/Egress Time Transfer Time Wait Time Fare Access/Egress Costs Parking Cost Service Frequency Auto Travel Time Congestion Delay Operating Costs* Tolls* Parking Costs* * Divided by occupancy 6

8 Sources of Transportation Networks Transportation networks were based on: State and Local Departments of Transportation highway databases National Highway System (NHS) database Amtrak schedules Airline schedules The ten percent sample of airline tickets Greyhound schedules Megabus schedules 7

9 COMPASS Networks The COMPASS Networks include the following networks from Charlotte, NC to Boston, MA (including the Hampton Roads area, Richmond, VA, Washington, DC, and New York, NY): Intercity Highway Passenger Rail Air Intercity Bus 8

10 Sources of Base Year Trip Database The Airline Origin and Destination Survey (DB1B) Air Ticket Database T-100 Air Market and Segment Database Greyhound and Megabus Schedules Previous travel origin-destination surveys State department of transportation (Virginia, Maryland, Washington, DC, North Carolina, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts) highway traffic volume Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) data Amtrak passenger rail ridership data Amtrak station volume data TEMS 2012 Virginia Travel Survey 9

12 Values of Time, Frequency, and Access Time VOT (2012 $/Hour) Air Bus Car Rail Business $44.45 $11.07 $19.42 $22.51 Commuter - $7.15 $14.80 $18.80 Social $31.76 $8.54 $16.88 $17.88 VOF (2012 $/Hour) Air Bus Rail Business $28.81 $7.33 $18.58 Commuter $6.50 $13.67 Social $26.28 $7.75 $16.13 VOA (2012 $/Hour) Air Bus Rail Business $ $42.73 Commuter - $8.89 $29.15 Social $47.94 $10.77 $37.66 Intercity value of time is larger than intraurban value of time due to longer trip length, this explains why commuters have lower value of time, which have more intraurban trips than other trip purposes 11
