MULTI‐DESTINATION, MULTI‐PURPOSE TRIP CHAINING AND ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR LOCATIONAL ACCESSIBILITY: A SIMULATION APPROACH

Frank Southworth

Papers in Regional Science, 1985, vol. 57, issue 1, 107-123

Abstract: ABSTRACT A trip‐chaining model is described and demonstrated. Based upon a distinction between fixed and discretionary travel destinations, a typology of chains is used to construct a set of available and likely trip chains. These chains are weighted — according to cost per trip, frequency of selection, and quality of destination opportunities — to produce a chain‐based measure of locational accessibility. Simulations demonstrate the relationship between chaining behavior, urban land use organization, and site specific locational advantage.
