Unit income elasticity of the value of travel time savings [PDF]
The paper presents an analysis of the income elasticity of the value of travel time savings (VTTS). It expands on previous micro-econometric estimates of the VTTS on binary choice experimental data by accounting for income taxes, for the dependence of ...
