摘要：
Considering the user heterogeneity based on value of time (VOT), a traffic equilibrium model is proposed with the application of tradable permits policy into a bi-modal transportation system consisting of transit and auto in parallel. It is shown that the permits scheme can erase the externality effect caused by congestion and reduce the system cost. Furthermore, it is found that if the auto mode is faster than the transit mode, the higher-VOT users prefer to use highway and the lower-VOT users choose transit; otherwise, those choosing highway are lower-VOT users. The permits scheme can play the same role with the OD-based tolling policy. Numerical results show that for users who are initially distributed permits, their commuting costs can be further decreased when choosing transit. Even in the case the amount of permits is less than threshold, users can have positive revenue by commuting on transit. © 2017, Editorial Board of Journal of Systems Engineering Society of China.
