Optimization of Modal Split in Tourism and Recreation Areas to Achieve Goals of Sustainable Transportation / 永續運輸目標下觀光遊憩地區運具分配比例最適化之研究

碩士 / 淡江大學 / 運輸管理學系碩士班 / 99 / More and more people pay attention to tourism in Taiwan due to the concept of "slow living". Tourism trips have increased rapidly recently. The problems in tourism areas, therefore, not only result in environmental and ecological deterioration, but also overcrowded traffic volumes. In order to meet requirements of ecological protection, economic efficiency and social equity for sustainable transportation under limited environmental and energy resources, this study aims at optimizing modal split in tourism and recreation areas to achieve goals of sustainable transportation.
Firstly, characteristics of all possible mode choices in tourism and recreation areas are analyzed and classified, then the weights of each mode choice are determined by using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Secondly, the premises and assumptions are declared and goal functions subjected to possible conditions are identified while constructing the optimization model. Based on results of proportions of modal splits, an overall evaluation index for sustainable transportation is finally computed under various scenarios with different traffic management strategies. The computed value can be used to demonstrate the status of sustainable transportation in surveyed tourism and recreation areas with proportions of transportation modes.
The National Sun Moon Lake Scenic Area is chosen as the case of empirical study. Bus, private car and motorcycle, bicycle, taxi, electric car and electric motorcycle are selected as mode choices in this study. The optimization model with real data is then constructed and solved by LINGO software to compute the overall evaluation index for sustainable transportation under various scenarios with feasible traffic management strategies. A 3D diagram showing status of sustainable transportation is finally drawn for visualization which can be regarded as a format for other tourism and recreation areas.
