For a long time, economic evaluation in New Zealand (through the NZTA’s EEM) has included values of time for freight vehicles and commercial drivers. The value of time for vehicles is from an allocation of vehicle operating costs to either distance-related or time-related components, with the annual time used to estimate an hourly time value. Distance based costs are more correctly assigned to vehicle operating costs so some components of EEM freight values of time are inconsistent with other values of time. The EEM does not currently provide for the evaluation of reliability for freight.
For freight transport, lateness on a specified receipt time seems to be the way to best conceptualise reliability. The value of reliability, or cost of unreliability for freight transport is bound up in the scheduling constraints of the particular freight operation and the cost consequences of failure to perform within those constraints
This research seeks to improve the value of time and develop values for reliability for freight transport beyond the allocation of marginal vehicle and driver utilisation costs.
NZ specific values of time and reliability have been established by Hyun Chan, (2014). ‘Developing a mode choice model for New Zealand freight transportation’ and the research needs to consider how these values could be adopted for use.
