E-scooter sharing to serve short-distance transit trips: A Singapore case (2021, methodology): “Transfer was estimated to generate penalties equivalent to 4.9 minutes of in-vehicle time in London (Guo and Wilson, 2011) and 5 to 15 minutes of invehicle time in general (Litman, 2008).”
A pooled RP/SP mode, route and destination choice model to investigate mode and user-type effects in the value of travel time savings (2019, background): “…etc.) enable public transportation (PT) passengers to use in-vehicle time more23 productively, which may in turn lead to a lower value attached to travel time savings in PT (e.g. Mokhtarian24 and Salomon, 2001; Litman, 2008; Hensher et al., 2016; Wardman and Lyons, 2016; Weis et al., 2017).”
Understanding Transport Demands and Elasticities: How Prices and Other Factors Affect Travel Behavior (2012, background): “Land use (also called built environment or urban design) factors such as density, mix, roadway connectivity, building design and parking supply can affect transport demand (Bartholomew and Ewing 2009; CARB 2010/2011; Litman 2008).”
Evaluating Public Transit Benefits and Costs (2015, background): “Even if the amount of time passengers spend travelling does not decline, unit travel time costs (cents per minute or dollars per hour) can decline significantly (Litman 2008a and 2008b).”
