Abstract

A measure to evaluate the impacts of transportation policy on individuals' quality of life is developed based on a discrete-continuous choice model of activity patterns. This measure is formulated as the expected maximum utility of daily activity patterns, which is calculated based on a utility function estimated using trip diary data. The estimated utility function indicates that 1) the marginal utility of a discretionary activity decreases as its duration increases, 2) the total utility of a discretionary activity can be formulated as a logarithm function, and 3) the marginal utility of a discretionary activity is affected by the attributes of the activity location. As a case-study, values of the evaluation measure are calculated for individuals from selected residential and work areas. The results indicates that the characteristics of residence and work locations, and commuting time all affect the utility of daily activities, and that the job-residence proximity contributes to higher utility values.
