Preface
RAND Europe, in collaboration with Scott Wilson, were commissioned by the UK
Department for Transport to develop a model to predict demand for long-distance
passenger travel on interurban networks using road, rail and air in Great Britain. The
model will be used to appraise the impact of policies and infrastructure aimed at this
market, such as road pricing, rail fares, high-speed rail, highway construction and
operation policies, and policies directed towards domestic air travel. As part of this work a
stated preference study was undertaken to examine the propensity of travellers currently
making long-distance journeys by car, (classic) rail and air to transfer to high-speed rail
services.
Scott Wilson was the lead partner for the overall study and was responsible for
development of the transport supply networks for car, air and rail travel, and the
implementation of the final models into a user-friendly forecasting system. RAND Europe
was responsible for the estimation of the travel demand models, using both stated
preference and revealed preference data.
This report described the stated preference surveys and the analysis of these data that was
undertaken as part of this study. This report has been produced by RAND Europe.
