Cross-elasticities of demand for travel

Mz Acutt and Js Dodgson

Transport Policy, 1995, vol. 2, issue 4, 271-277

Abstract: This paper derives a set of cross-elasticities of demand at the national level for travel in Great Britain. The elasticities consist of cross-elasticities between car travel and the fares on six different public transport modes, and between travel on these six modes and the price of petrol. The cross-elasticity values are calculated using previous estimates of own-price elasticities, data on modal traffic levels, and 'diversion factors' derived from a survey of transport experts.
