Abstract


One of the possible approaches to classifying the transport demand models is the division into aggregated and disaggregated models. Aggregated models deal with transport demand at the zone level while disaggregated models try to describe the behaviour of a single user of the transport system. The basis of this second approach is the term "utility maximization" which is based on the assumption that each transport system user has enough information that can make a rational choice how to travel. In the paper, a case study of a smaller satellite city has been carried out by using the logit model as well as stated preference survey in order to estimate the share of common use of a car (car – pooling) for travel to a large city.
