Abstract:The objective of this research is to develop alternative time-dependent travel demand models of hurricane evacuation travel and to compare the performance of these models with each other and with the state-of-the-practice models in current use. Specifically, the research is directed at addressing the following hypotheses: • Time-dependent travel demand models that reproduce hurricane evacuation travel more accurately than conventional methods that use evacuation participation rates and response curves can be developed. • Time-dependent travel demand models that are capable of reproducing hurricane evacuation travel at different locations and under different storm and policy conditions can be developed.
