Considering the time varying and special factors in the forecast of China’s OD distribution in the coming years, such as the road network structure changes, changes in the regional economic layout, and different speeds of regional economic growth, this paper mainly uses the “three stage method”evolved on the basis of the “four stage method”for the short term forecast of the high speed railway traffic volumet. First, Combination Forecast Model is used to forecast the trend traffic volume, then, Multivariate LOGIT Model is used to forecast the share of each mode of transportation, and finally Elasticity Coefficient Induced Model is used to forecast induced traffic volume. Taking an example of Beijing Shanghai high speed railway, this paper uses the “three stage method”to forecast the original line and cross line traffic volume in 2014 and 2015. |
