Trip assignment to radial major roads

Abstract

The problem of flow-dependent trip assignment is considered for a city with a small number of radial major roads. CBD-based work trips are assigned to these radial major roads on the basis that each commuter seeks to minimise his individual travel time. A system of differential equations is derived for the spatial pattern of trip assignment in a model city with a continuous distribution of home locations and a ring-radial road network. This system is then solved for the special case of a uniform distribution of home locations.
