Abstract:

To explore the underlying causes of uneven path utilization in urban mixed road networks, revealed preference (RP) and stated preference (SP) joint surveys were adopted to systematically collect data on drivers' attributes and path choices in urban mixed road networks. Path choice models based on random regret theory were developed, incorporating multidimensional path attributes and individual travel characteristics, with scale effects introduced to enhance predictive accuracy. The results show that path attributes such as distance, number of traffic lights, tolls, historical average travel time, additional time during congestion, and the likelihood of congestion significantly influence path selection. Personal travel frequency and historical path preferences also play critical roles in decision-making. The improved model considering path attributes achieves a hit rate of 0.703, and the improved model integrated drivers' attributes has a hit rate of 0.872, demonstrating superior fitting performance and predictive capability compared to traditional models. The study results provides a quantitative basis for refined urban traffic management strategies and practical insights for optimizing personalized navigation services.

Key words: transportation planning and management, route selection behavior prediction, stochastic regret minimization model, mixed road network, travel characteristics, route attributes
