Description:

Housing location decision is basic information for transportation modeling. As the basis of trip generation its modelling is quite well-studied. These models are based on economic theories and assume the knowledge of a broad range of decisive information. At the same time people tend to make decision knowing far less information using heuristics. Utilizing this decision making process the question arises: providing more detailed, easily accessible information do people make more rational decision? And further considering: providing these information could we influence decision making to match with the objectives of regional development and transportation management?

Description:

Since the accession to the EU, Hungary came at huge sum of development resources. These resources should serve the sustainable development of the economy of the country and its people. However, joint planning between land-use planning, regional planning and transportation planning is lacking, disendowing the utilization of possible synergies. LUTI models represent a way to deal with this problem, but Hungarian research in this field is in hiatus, and governmental interest is missing. This paper aims to draw attention to this field. It is in Hungary's best interest to develop or adopt some kind of LUTI model to enhance its developmental capability.
