Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this research project is to construct travel demand model with budget and time constraints. The project also tried to incorporate multi-purpose and multi-destination trips into the model. My preliminary results represented a way of modeling change in traveler behaviors in national parks by designation of new protected areas and/or policy change. The model is expected to be not only a tool for reducing congestion and environment impact in protected areas, but also a tool for wide range of application in policy planning.
