Reliability of Travel Time: Challenges Posed by a Multimodal Transport Participation

Abstract

Travel time reliability represents an essential component in individual decision making processes for transport participants, particularly regarding mode choices. As criteria that describe the quality of both transportation systems and transportation modes, travel time reliability is already frequently compiled, analysed and quoted as an argument. Currently, travel time reliability is solely mentioned on monomodal trips, while it has remained unconsidered on multimodal transport participation. Given the fact that multimodality gained significantly in importance, it is crucial to discuss how travel time reliability could be determined on multimodal trips. This paper points out the challenges that occur for applying travel time reliability on multimodal transport participation. Therefore, examples will be given within this paper. In order to illustrate theoretical ideas, trips and influencing factors that could be expected within the everyday transport behaviour of commuters in a (sub)urban area will be described.
