This research is seeking to determine the short and long term contributions of individual routes to the total benefit value generated by the network. In order to understand both short and long run benefit streams. The project aims to develop an equilibrium model of network use, capturing endogenity between public transport use, demand for residential locations and house price effects illustrated by case studies. The implementation will make use of optimal planning, and develop an empirical methodology that the Transport Agency could use for future benefit calculations.
A better understanding of the economic value of levels of service within the public transport network may:
• Influence network planning decisions of approved organsiations. Decisions to reduce/increase services with lower patronage (coverage, off peak, feeder services) will impact on the spatial and economic characteristics of urban and provinical centres.
• Help to influence network reviews alongside best practice network design and costing data.
• Be an input into Transport Agency funding assessment processes, by providing further information about how public transport serivces may be assessed
• Improve clarity about the linkages and synergies between different types of services, from a individual services level (microeconomic) perspective
• Improve understanding of the tradeoffs between public transport and other modes as part of the network operating framework, and contribute to integrating one network for customers that maximises returns for New Zealand.
