The Croatian Ministry of Maritime Affairs, Transport and Infrastructure commissioned the development of the National Transport Model to a Consortium combining local national knowledge with international expertise. The scope of the project is to develop the National Transport Model, collect all available data, carry out necessary surveys, develop networks models and demand models for freight and passenger demand for the base year, calibrate and validate the models, and develop forecast models for the time horizons of 2020, 2030 and 2040. This paper describes development of passenger demand model, including methodology, data collection and validation. Passenger demand model is an integral part of National Transport model that consists of common network with common zoning, passenger and freight demand models and assignment.
