Modelling of Ground Access Mode Choice: Empirical Evidence from Mehrabad International Airport, Tehran, Iran

Abstract The aim of this study is to investigate air travellers’ behaviour with regard to choices for ground access to this airport. Questionnaire data were collected from 684 respondents. Multinomial logit modelling was employed for this purpose. These findings indicate that in families with at least one car of their own, the tendency for using bus and carpooling was decreased. In addition, it was found that those in the 36 - 40 age group were more inclined to take the taxi. Finally, the results of this study suggest that with the growing price of the private car, the tendency to use it was diminished. Therefore, if transportation authorities seek to reduce the use of personal cars, it is possible to make the use of private cars expensive with increasing the parking cost in the airport. This may lead to the reduction of using private cars in land access to Mehrabad airport.
