Abstract

In June 2007, the Danish Parliament passed an act to finance the construction of the Metro City Ring in Copenhagen. The assessment project is based on the passenger patronage forecasts for 2015 from the Copenhagen traffic model. In this paper we show how the model forecasts for this particular infrastructure project can be explained through detailed knowledge of model structure and model validation.

Notes

1. In the application of the model, non‐home‐based and home‐based business trips are aggregated to business trips (BU).

2. Greater Copenhagen measures about 100 km from north to south and about 60 km from west to east.

3. One public transport trip can contain more than one boarding.
