Carbon emission reduction is now an important principle of governancearound the world. Of all sectors, transportation plays a major role in carbondioxide emission. In order to reduce CO2 emission from the transport sector,governments must become actively involved in environmental protection and strivefor energy efficiency in transportation systems. To reach the goal of carbonreduction, people are encouraged to take public transit and reduce the use ofprivate vehicles.In this study, Dynamic Multiple Mode Selection and Trip Assignment Model(DynaMMSTAM) is applied to deal with dynamic multiple mode choice and tripassignment tasks. DynaMMSTAM includes two models, TAM-MAPTS andDynaTAIWAN. TAM-MAPTS, the transit trip assignment model, is first used toobtain the transit travel costs for all trips, and then, the model appliesDynaTAIWAN, the private vehicle trip assignment model, to calculate the privatevehicle travel cost for each trip. The minimum travel cost criteria are used todecide the mode selection for each individual trip. Through the accumulation ofmileage travelled by the private vehicle, the total amount of CO2 emission can becalculated. The idea is trying to lead the private vehicle users to use public transitso as to reduce CO2 emission. That is, to either reduce the transit cost or increasethe passenger car travel cost.Three cost factors including parking fee, oil price, and transit fare affectdirectly the traveler’s mode choice. Appropriate pricing of these cost factors canresult in the effective change in the impact of carbon reduction and reaching thenational reduction goal. Three pricing strategy groups defined in the study areapplied to a simplified Kaohsiung analogue network by alternatively changing thethree cost factors. The three groups include single cost factor pricing strategy,alternative pricing strategy for two cost factors, and mobilization of all three costfactors.Analyses have shown that multiple variable pricing strategies promote more carbon reduction benefits than a single variable due to the compounding effect.However, the government needs to consider not only the price elasticity but alsothe feasibility when implementing the carbon reduction strategies. Therefore,pricing strategies should be applied flexibly in the consideration of CO2 reductiontarget. As far as possible, the single variable pricing strategy should be the basis,while applying the multi-variable pricing strategy as a supplement. |
