Description

Promoting public transportation usage is crucial in order to solve problems such as traffic congestion and green house effects caused by motorization and car-oriented urban structure. This paper introduces a new TDM measure called 'Travel eco-point' program, in which one can acquire points when he/she uses environmentally friendly transportation system (e.g. public transportation) and can exchange the accumulated points to incentives for further eco-friendly travel behavior (e.g. provision of free rail tickets), and then reports the result of social experiments conducted in Nagoya. Furthermore, we investigated user's preferences toward the eco-point program and found that people seem to prefer the program through which they can return their profit to environmental improvement as well as the program with high refund rate.
