Details

Unlike other transport models which require land-use inputs forecast by outside factors, land use transport interaction models generate their own forecasts. These forecasts are dependent:

  • on input land-use policies
  • changes in accessibility brought about by conditions on the transport system

Land use transport interaction models are not commonly used in transport studies or appraisals, where examples exist they are predominantly on a strategic scale.
