However, these models typically do not account for broader changes in the economy, which may significantly shift travel patterns in the case of larger transport projects. LUTI models are often applied to simulate changes in land-use patterns, and regional production function models have been used to estimate changes in production, but these methods rely on fixed economic parameters that may not capture the structural economic changes induced by large transport projects. In a separate line of development, computable general equilibrium (CGE) models, which simulate entire economies, have been increasingly applied to estimate the magnitude and distribution of economic impacts from transport improvements both spatially and through markets, including GDP and welfare. Some CGE models are linked with transport network models, but none incorporate detailed networks or generate a complete set of travel demands. This paper presents an integrated CGE and transport model that generates household and freight trips and simulates a detailed road network for different time periods, such that the transport submodel can be calibrated and run as a conventional transport model. The model provides a tool for the rapid strategic assessment of transport projects and policies when economic responses cannot be assumed to remain static. In the model, the CGE submodel simulates the behaviour of households and firms interacting in markets, where their behaviour takes trip costs into account. The model then generates trips as a derived demand from agent activities and assigns them to the road network according to user equilibrium, before feeding back trip costs to the CGE submodel. The model is then tested by simulating the WestConnex motorway project under construction in Sydney, with results showing significant increases in welfare for regions close to the improvements. Further development of the model is required to incorporate land-use and mode choice."/> <meta name="prism.issn" content="1572-9435"/> <meta name="prism.publicationName" content="Transportation"/> <meta name="prism.publicationDate" content="2022-06-29"/> <meta name="prism.volume" content="50"/> <meta name="prism.number" content="4"/> <meta name="prism.section" content="OriginalPaper"/> <meta name="prism.startingPage" content="1213"/> <meta name="prism.endingPage" content="1260"/> <meta name="prism.copyright" content="2022 The Author(s)"/> <meta name="prism.rightsAgent" content="journalpermissions@springernature.com"/> <meta name="prism.url" content="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x"/> <meta name="prism.doi" content="doi:10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x"/> <meta name="citation_pdf_url" content="https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x.pdf"/> <meta name="citation_fulltext_html_url" content="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x"/> <meta name="citation_journal_title" content="Transportation"/> <meta name="citation_journal_abbrev" content="Transportation"/> <meta name="citation_publisher" content="Springer US"/> <meta name="citation_issn" content="1572-9435"/> <meta name="citation_title" content="Integrating a computable general equilibrium model with the four-step framework"/> <meta name="citation_volume" content="50"/> <meta name="citation_issue" content="4"/> <meta name="citation_publication_date" content="2023/08"/> <meta name="citation_online_date" content="2022/06/29"/> <meta name="citation_firstpage" content="1213"/> <meta name="citation_lastpage" content="1260"/> <meta name="citation_article_type" content="Article"/> <meta name="citation_fulltext_world_readable" content=""/> <meta name="citation_language" content="en"/> <meta name="dc.identifier" content="doi:10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x"/> <meta name="DOI" content="10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x"/> <meta name="size" content="647542"/> <meta name="citation_doi" content="10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x"/> <meta name="citation_springer_api_url" content="http://api.springer.com/xmldata/jats?q=doi:10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x&amp;api_key="/> <meta name="description" content="In the transport policy development process, four-step models are commonly used to estimate transport costs and flows based on representations of travel de"/> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Shahriari, Siroos"/> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Robson, Edward N."/> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Wang, Jason"/> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Dixit, Vinayak V."/> <meta name="dc.creator" content="Waller, S.

However, these models typically do not account for broader changes in the economy, which may significantly shift travel patterns in the case of larger transport projects. LUTI models are often applied to simulate changes in land-use patterns, and regional production function models have been used to estimate changes in production, but these methods rely on fixed economic parameters that may not capture the structural economic changes induced by large transport projects. In a separate line of development, computable general equilibrium (CGE) models, which simulate entire economies, have been increasingly applied to estimate the magnitude and distribution of economic impacts from transport improvements both spatially and through markets, including GDP and welfare. Some CGE models are linked with transport network models, but none incorporate detailed networks or generate a complete set of travel demands. This paper presents an integrated CGE and transport model that generates household and freight trips and simulates a detailed road network for different time periods, such that the transport submodel can be calibrated and run as a conventional transport model. The model provides a tool for the rapid strategic assessment of transport projects and policies when economic responses cannot be assumed to remain static. In the model, the CGE submodel simulates the behaviour of households and firms interacting in markets, where their behaviour takes trip costs into account. The model then generates trips as a derived demand from agent activities and assigns them to the road network according to user equilibrium, before feeding back trip costs to the CGE submodel. The model is then tested by simulating the WestConnex motorway project under construction in Sydney, with results showing significant increases in welfare for regions close to the improvements. Further development of the model is required to incorporate land-use and mode choice."/> <meta property="og:image"

However, these models typically do not account for broader changes in the economy, which may significantly shift travel patterns in the case of larger transport projects. LUTI models are often applied to simulate changes in land-use patterns, and regional production function models have been used to estimate changes in production, but these methods rely on fixed economic parameters that may not capture the structural economic changes induced by large transport projects. In a separate line of development, computable general equilibrium (CGE) models, which simulate entire economies, have been increasingly applied to estimate the magnitude and distribution of economic impacts from transport improvements both spatially and through markets, including GDP and welfare. Some CGE models are linked with transport network models, but none incorporate detailed networks or generate a complete set of travel demands. This paper presents an integrated CGE and transport model that generates household and freight trips and simulates a detailed road network for different time periods, such that the transport submodel can be calibrated and run as a conventional transport model. The model provides a tool for the rapid strategic assessment of transport projects and policies when economic responses cannot be assumed to remain static. In the model, the CGE submodel simulates the behaviour of households and firms interacting in markets, where their behaviour takes trip costs into account. The model then generates trips as a derived demand from agent activities and assigns them to the road network according to user equilibrium, before feeding back trip costs to the CGE submodel. The model is then tested by simulating the WestConnex motorway project under construction in Sydney, with results showing significant increases in welfare for regions close to the improvements. Further development of the model is required to incorporate land-use and mode choice.","datePublished":"2022-06-29T00:00:00Z","dateModified":"2022-06-29T00:00:00Z","pageStart":"1213","pageEnd":"1260","license":"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","sameAs":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x","keywords":["Four-step model","Computable general equilibrium model","Strategic transport planning","Transport appraisal","Transport demand","Regional/Spatial Science","Economic Geography","Engineering Economics","Organization","Logistics","Marketing","Innovation/Technology Management"],"image":["https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig1_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig2_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig3_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig4_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig5_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig6_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig7_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig8_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig9_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig10_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig11_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig12_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig13_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig14_HTML.png"],"isPartOf":{"name":"Transportation","issn":["1572-9435","0049-4488"],"volumeNumber":"50","@type":["Periodical","PublicationVolume"]},"publisher":{"name":"Springer US","logo":{"url":"https://www.springernature.com/app-sn/public/images/logo-springernature.png","@type":"ImageObject"},"@type":"Organization"},"author":[{"name":"Siroos Shahriari","affiliation":[{"name":"UNSW Sydney","address":{"name":"Research Centre for Integrated Transport Innovation (rCITI), School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, UNSW Sydney, Sydney, Australia","@type":"PostalAddress"},"@type":"Organization"}],"@type":"Person"},{"name":"Edward N.

However, these models typically do not account for broader changes in the economy, which may significantly shift travel patterns in the case of larger transport projects. LUTI models are often applied to simulate changes in land-use patterns, and regional production function models have been used to estimate changes in production, but these methods rely on fixed economic parameters that may not capture the structural economic changes induced by large transport projects. In a separate line of development, computable general equilibrium (CGE) models, which simulate entire economies, have been increasingly applied to estimate the magnitude and distribution of economic impacts from transport improvements both spatially and through markets, including GDP and welfare. Some CGE models are linked with transport network models, but none incorporate detailed networks or generate a complete set of travel demands. This paper presents an integrated CGE and transport model that generates household and freight trips and simulates a detailed road network for different time periods, such that the transport submodel can be calibrated and run as a conventional transport model. The model provides a tool for the rapid strategic assessment of transport projects and policies when economic responses cannot be assumed to remain static. In the model, the CGE submodel simulates the behaviour of households and firms interacting in markets, where their behaviour takes trip costs into account. The model then generates trips as a derived demand from agent activities and assigns them to the road network according to user equilibrium, before feeding back trip costs to the CGE submodel. The model is then tested by simulating the WestConnex motorway project under construction in Sydney, with results showing significant increases in welfare for regions close to the improvements. Further development of the model is required to incorporate land-use and mode choice.</p></div></div></section> <div data-test="cobranding-download"> </div> <section aria-labelledby="inline-recommendations" data-title="Inline Recommendations" class="c-article-recommendations" data-track-component="inline-recommendations"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-title" id="inline-recommendations">Similar content being viewed by others</h3> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11067-017-9356-z/MediaObjects/11067_2017_9356_Fig1_HTML.gif" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://link.springer.com/10.1007/s11067-017-9356-z?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_1" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 1" data-track-label="10.1007/s11067-017-9356-z">A General Equilibrium Framework for Integrated Assessment of Transport and Economic Impacts </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">05 July 2017</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs10666-021-09760-y/MediaObjects/10666_2021_9760_Fig1_HTML.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://link.springer.com/10.1007/s10666-021-09760-y?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_2" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 2" data-track-label="10.1007/s10666-021-09760-y">Coupling a Detailed Transport Model to the Integrated Assessment Model REMIND </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__access-type">Open access</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">30 March 2021</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w92h120/springer-static/cover-hires/book/978-3-319-50590-9?as&#x3D;webp" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-50590-9_4?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_3" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 3" data-track-label="10.1007/978-3-319-50590-9_4">Computable General Equilibrium Modelling in Regional Science </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Chapter</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">© 2017</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> </div> </section> <script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];

The simplest four-step models assume that origin–destination (OD) demands for trip assignment remain static as transport networks change. For small changes, this assumption is most likely realistic, but larger ones can lead to fundamental shifts in economies and travel demand. For example, improvements in travel time savings may lead to migration, changes in employment patterns, increased attractiveness of shopping regions and so forth.</p><p>One method of incorporating OD demand elasticity is to update the generation, distribution and mode split steps using travel times from the assignment step. Land-use transport interaction (LUTI) models (Wegener <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2004" title="Wegener, M.: Overview of land use transport models. In: Handbook of Transport Geography and Spatial Systems. Emerald Group Publishing Limited, Bingley (2004)" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#ref-CR57" id="ref-link-section-d134015200e517">2004</a>) achieve this by simulating changes in land-use patterns resulting from changes in travel times or accessibility indicators, and then recalculating travel demand from the new land-use patterns. While this can allow for the partial equilibration of land markets, there is still a reliance on fixed economic parameters for markets other than transport and land as well as of prices for all markets.</p><p>Unabated population growth, urbanisation, and increase in consumption leads to higher pressure on transport services. In addition, changes in the production structure and economic patterns also can influence transport demand over time. As a result, a new body of research focuses on transport modelling, defined by the creation of transport input–output (IO) models at the urban and regional scale, where authors used IO, gravity, and SCGE approaches to model inter-regional freight demand (Ivanova <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2014" title="Ivanova, O.: Modelling inter-regional freight demand with input–output, gravity and SCGE methodologies.

These are not captured in the conventional consumer surplus metric used in cost benefit analyses, whether driven by classic four-step modelling structures or contemporary activity-based models.</p><p>Computable general equilibrium (CGE) models have been adapted in recent years to analyse the economic effects of transport and to quantify WEIs (Wangsness et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2016" title="Wangsness, P.B., Rødseth, K.L., Hansen, W.: A Review of guidelines for including wider economic impacts in transport appraisal.

A CGE model comprises a set of equilibrium equations representing supply and demand in every market in a given economy. These equations are built from fundamental microeconomic models of household (consumer) and firm (producer) behaviour, and thus a CGE model can provide a wide array of welfare, price and GDP outputs. They can also be used to identify the eventual distribution of impacts both spatially and through markets from the equilibration of the entire economy.</p><p>CGE models for transport are typically applied to estimate productivity gains from transport improvements, where transport costs determine regional demand and freight costs (Robson et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2018" title="Robson, E.N., Wijayaratna, K.P., Dixit, V.V.: A Review of Computable general equilibrium models for transport and their applications in appraisal.

Some formulations represent household travel demand as well, in which case transport costs influence household decisions on where to live, work and shop. In most models, transport costs are static parameters calculated by a transport model. There are a limited number of models with feedback between CGE and transport submodels such that the CGE model generates demand for the transport model, and the transport model generates transport costs for the CGE model (Shahraki and Bachmann <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2018" title="Shahraki, H.S., Bachmann, C.: Designing computable general equilibrium models for transportation applications.

Since CGE models are simulators of economies, it is possible to generate trips at a very fundamental level—as a <i>derived demand</i> from the activities of households and firms, whose behaviour is determined from utility and profit maximisation models. A key advantage of linking these two models is that the one model could then be used to estimate both the magnitude and distribution of economic impacts, rather than relying on exogenous transport and economic models, generating a faster and richer set of outputs for strategic planning. The two-fold benefit towards both CGE and transport modelling practice would be that the transport model provides a complete endogenous response of transport costs for the CGE model, and the CGE model provides an endogenous economic response for the transport model.</p><p>However, very few, if any, existing CGE models with endogenous transport costs represent transport networks in such detail (Robson et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2018" title="Robson, E.N., Wijayaratna, K.P., Dixit, V.V.: A Review of Computable general equilibrium models for transport and their applications in appraisal.

For example (Broecker et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2004" title="Broecker, J., Meyer, R., Schneekloth, N., Schuermann, C., Spiekermann, K., Wegener, M.: Modelling the Socio-Economic and Spatial Impacts of EU Transport Policy Deliverable D6 of IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial Economic and Network Effects of Transport Investments and Policies).

Transport models in the four-step framework are required to handle detailed networks, incorporate different time periods and generate a complete set of travel demands (including household and freight) to model transport costs accurately and at a resolution that permits the analysis of physical changes in infrastructure. Instead, existing CGE models with endogenous transport costs mostly represent sketch networks at the geographical scale of the CGE model, which are generally much coarser than the scale of travel zones in a four-step model, making the analysis of physical changes more difficult. Furthermore, existing models tend to only generate trips that are relevant to their model behaviour, e.g. commuting and shopping trips for an urban CGE model, or freight trips for a regional CGE model. Without representing the full set of travel demands, transport costs do not reflect those observed in the actual network.</p><p>This paper presents an integrated CGE and transport model that generates household and freight trips and simulates a detailed road network for different time periods. It is conceptually distinct from the model in Robson and Dixit (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2017a" title="Robson, E.N., Dixit, V.V.: A general equilibrium framework for integrated assessment of transport and economic impacts.

Compared to that model, the transport submodel is new in that it is formulated separately, generates freight trips and allows for different geographies and time periods between the submodels. The CGE submodel in this paper is an extended version of the submodel in Robson and Dixit (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2017a" title="Robson, E.N., Dixit, V.V.: A general equilibrium framework for integrated assessment of transport and economic impacts.

Above all of these modifications, the Robson and Dixit work was based on a mixed complementarity formulation which was restricting the usage of the model for large scale problems. This is now relaxed in the proposed formulation of this paper.</p><p>This structure provides a universal platform for modelling the economy and transport networks together, which can be extended for land-use. The model is calibrated for the Sydney transport network and economy, and is tested by simulating the WestConnex motorway project currently under construction. At this stage, the model does not simulate mode choice, but can be implemented in future models. The proposed model paves the path of development of transport-based CGE models. This suggests a paradigm shift from CGE-based transport models, which are typically limited in terms of the level of complication that can be borrowed from a transport model such as number of zones/links of a realistic transport network or properties of the travel demand model. In introducing a transport-based CGE model, the transport aspects of the proposed formulation can be seen as an object-oriented structure which can be easily plugged in if needed without requiring many changes in the CGE model. As such, the proposed transport-based CGE model can better accommodate transport related policies to assess their effectiveness and robustness.

In the 1930s and 40s, Leontief (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1941" title="Leontief, W.W.: The Structure of the American Economy.

Johansen (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1960" title="Johansen, L.: A Multi-Sectoral Study of Economic Growth.

Meanwhile, models of the economy were being developed in the field of general equilibrium theory, in particular the Arrow–Debreu model (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1954" title="Arrow, K.J., Debreu, G.: Existence of an equilibrium for a competitive economy.

However, the IO approach started to dominate by the 1980s due to its flexibility, and the terms and concepts of the two streams of literature effectively merged. CGE models from this era, such as ORANI (Dixon et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1982" title="Dixon, P.B., Parmenter, B.R., Sutton, J., Vincent, D.P.: ORANI: A Multisectoral Model of the Australian Economy.

Robson et al. (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2018" title="Robson, E.N., Wijayaratna, K.P., Dixit, V.V.: A Review of Computable general equilibrium models for transport and their applications in appraisal.

Urban CGE models borrow more from the general equilibrium literature to simulate urban economies and incorporate urban-scale characteristics such as land-use and congestion. While early urban CGE models were theoretical in nature, more recent examples such as RELU-TRAN have been applied in real cities to study issues such as fuel prices, congestion tolling and job growth from infrastructure investment (Anas <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2013" title="Anas, A.: A summary of the applications to date of RELU-TRAN, a microeconomic urban computable general equilibrium model.

CGE models at the regional scale, including spatial CGE models, spatial price equilibrium-based (SPE) CGE models and new economic geography-based (NEG) CGE models, focus more on the economic impacts of inter-regional freight costs. Spatial CGE models are spatial extensions of conventional CGE models, and thus draw significantly from the IO literature. These have been developed for a diversity of applications globally, including in Europe (Bröcker <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1998" title="Bröcker, J.: Operational spatial computable general equilibrium modeling.

NEG-based CGE models simulate the formation of urban agglomerations through industries with imperfect competition and increasing returns to scale. Some of these have been developed extensively for transport appraisal, such as the RAEM (Ivanova et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2007" title="Ivanova, O., Heyndrickx, C., Spitaels, K., Tavasszy, L., Manshanden, W., Snelder, M., Koops, O.: RAEM: Version 3.0.

Finally, congestion and externality CGE models are generally non-spatial, but represent travel commodities and household travel demand in detail to calculate congestion externalities. All of these fields have models that contain useful aspects for developing a CGE model that is aligned with the four-step transport planning model.</p><p>Shahraki and Bachmann (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2018" title="Shahraki, H.S., Bachmann, C.: Designing computable general equilibrium models for transportation applications.

In spatial CGE models, transport costs are incorporated as a margin for industries to move goods from their region of production to their region of use. These margins are provided by an explicit transport industry in a full model. However, an alternative approach first proposed by Samuelson (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1954" title="Samuelson, P.A.: The transfer problem and transport costs, II: analysis of effects of trade impediments.

In an iteration of RELU-TRAN, a CGE submodel is run to generate OD demands, which are then fed into a traffic assignment submodel to determine routing and travel costs for the next iteration of the CGE submodel. Rutherford and van Nieuwkoop’s model instead combines the CGE and traffic assignment submodels into a single mathematical problem. To do this, the model uses a multi-commodity flow (MCF) form of user equilibrium (UE) assignment, which can be expressed as a mixed complementarity problem and combined with the CGE submodel equations.

Another set of trips to consider is business trips, which is included in the RAEM model (Oosterhaven et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2001" title="Oosterhaven, J., Knaap, T., Ruijgrok, C., Tavassy, L.: On the Development of RAEM: The Dutch Spatial General Equilibrium Model and Its First Application to a New Railway Link.

However, in almost all these cases, the transport models are somewhat additional to the CGE models, and thus lack emphasis on the necessary features required in transport modelling. These include separate geographies between the CGE and transport models to enable the simulation of detailed transport networks, rather than sketch networks, a full set of household and freight trip purposes, and the incorporation of different time periods for modelling the road network.</p><p>The proposed framework can easily incorporate population and employment modifications. The size and distribution of the population is captured in the model through household agents, where each household represents the people living in each combination of residence location, workplace location and employment industry. The size of each household agent is driven by their endowments of time and capital, with each household’s endowment being the sum of the endowments of the represented population. Population forecasts can therefore be incorporated by adjusting the endowments of each household for each forecast year. For example, if a region’s population is forecast to double (with employment and income distributions remaining the same), the endowments of the corresponding households can be doubled to forecast travel demand. This also enables a comparative static analysis for each forecast year by running the model both with and without the infrastructure/policy change. Likewise, workforce forecasts can be incorporated by adjusting the endowments of the corresponding households, except by employment region and industry rather than by residence region which is analogous to using the Pisserides search model (Pissarides <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2000" title="Pissarides, C.A.: Equilibrium Unemployment Theory.

However, unlike population forecasts, overall levels of employment are determined endogenously through modelling the labour-leisure decision and do not need to be modelled externally. Further, this model is designed so that mode split behaviour can be added without great difficulty, for example using an MNL model (resulting in a logsum calculation of trip costs) or CES function at the trip generation and trip cost stages of the framework.</p><p>Activity-based modelling is a more recent class of travel demand modelling that simulates the daily activities and corresponding movements of individuals, providing far greater detail than conventional four-step models. To the authors’ knowledge, there are no examples of integrated CGE and activity-based models for travel demand, although there are examples of integrated CGE and microsimulation models such as Bourguignon et al. (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2005" title="Bourguignon, F., Robilliard, A.-S., Robinson, S.: Representative versus real households in the macroeconomic modeling of inequality.

It may be possible to develop such a model, but due to the additional complexity of activity-based models, the required computing time may be prohibitive.</p></div></div></section><section data-title="Methodology"><div class="c-article-section" id="Sec3-section"><h2 class="c-article-section__title js-section-title js-c-reading-companion-sections-item" id="Sec3">Methodology</h2><div class="c-article-section__content" id="Sec3-content"><p>The proposed model is an integrated CGE and transport model that generates both household and freight trips and can simulate different geographical scales and time periods between the submodels. Four-step models typically have high spatial detail, with travel zones under 1 km<sup>2</sup> in size to load demand precisely onto links. A range of time periods are also usually simulated as travel patterns vary significantly throughout the day. On the other hand, a CGE model grows rapidly as the number of regions increases, and becomes unwieldy at the number of zones required in a four-step model. Even if it were possible, it is debatable whether spatial variances in economic conditions justify CGE modelling at the travel zone level. In this model, the CGE submodel is an extended version of the submodel in Robson and Dixit (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2017a" title="Robson, E.N., Dixit, V.V.: A general equilibrium framework for integrated assessment of transport and economic impacts.

The change is in view of tests that were conducted on the original model—when the transport network was scaled up, solvers for the MCF UE assignment formulation slowed considerably and often could not converge. In contrast, conventional assignment algorithms could solve the same networks in minutes due to their ability to adjust volumes across multiple links (path flows). As a result, the submodels have been split into explicit models, despite the original structure potentially affording efficiencies in allowing a solver to find the fastest solution path between the two submodels.</p><p>Both the CGE and transport submodels are static. The model is calibrated to a baseline equilibrium that is replicated when the model is run without changes. When an economic or transport parameter is changed, the model calculates a counterfactual equilibrium representing the long-term state of the economy, which provides a consistent basis for measuring impacts and comparing proposals. This is founded on the assumption that markets and transport networks tend towards equilibrium over time through the adjustment of prices and routing respectively. Any parameter in the CGE and transport submodels can be changed, including the structure of the transport network, yielding corresponding changes in prices, outputs, travel demand and trip costs.</p><h3 class="c-article__sub-heading" id="Sec4">Model structure</h3><p>Figure <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="figure anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Fig2">2</a> shows the structure of the model, which is implemented as a script in the mathematical programming software AMPL (Fourer et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2003" title="Fourer, R., Gay, D.M., Kernighan, B.W.: AMPL: A Modeling Language for Mathematical Programming.

The submodel comprises a set of simultaneous nonlinear equations that are parameterised by travel time prices and freight requirements from the transport submodel. Commodity flows from the CGE submodel are then used to generate trips for the transport submodel. At any equilibrium, the established CGE model represents an economy with an excess demand function and a non-zero price vector. With a finite number of equilibria, the economy has a general equilibrium configuration (Mas-Colell et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1995" title="Mas-Colell, A., Whinston, M.D., Green, J.R.: Microeconomic Theory.

The model is based on the Arrow–Debreu development economy, which features competitive markets with no restrictions on free-market operation and atomistic competition. The CGE model's output function is a nested Constant Returns to Scale (CRS) Constant Elasticity of Substitution (CES) function with a regular structure, which was borrowed from the ORANI model (Dixon et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1982" title="Dixon, P.B., Parmenter, B.R., Sutton, J., Vincent, D.P.: ORANI: A Multisectoral Model of the Australian Economy.

This form of competition, as opposed to monopolistic competition, was chosen for this particular model to reduce potential issues with multiple equilibria. In addition, welfare measured from the CGE submodel (traditionally used for the measurement of indirect impacts) is not additive with welfare measured from the transport submodel (traditionally used for the measurement of direct impacts), and the CGE submodel should be taken as the single point of measurement of welfare.</p><p>The choices regarding labour and capital mobility were made in view of the strategic planning uses of the model. The infinite mobility of capital reflects a long-term perspective where there is sufficient time for it to transform and move as required, for consistency between counterfactual scenarios. Likewise, labour was assumed to be immobile to allow for consistent comparisons between groups of people, and to have the ability to incorporate workforce forecasts. Both of these assumptions will be reviewed in future models.</p><h4 class="c-article__sub-heading c-article__sub-heading--small" id="Sec6">Households</h4><p>Households maximise utility subject to both time and monetary constraints.

This migration behaviour is not directly integrated into the utility function (for reasons that will be discussed below), and instead operates at a separate level <i>after</i> agents receive their utility for each cycle of the model.</p><p>The mechanism for migration is as follows. Each agent observes the utilities of all agents that are similar to them in terms of employment but dissimilar in terms of residential location. Any differences in utility would be attributed to location choice (as agents are otherwise homogenous), meaning that agents are inclined to move the region where they expect to receive the highest utility.</p><p>Mathematically, the mechanism for migration is as follows:</p><div id="Equa" class="c-article-equation"><div class="c-article-equation__content"><span class="mathjax-tex">$${\%}_{migration}=\frac{{u}_{max}-{u}_{current}}{{u}_{max}}$$</span></div></div><p>where <span class="mathjax-tex">\({\%}_{migration}=\)</span> the percentage of household agents that migrate out of a given region in each model cycle. <span class="mathjax-tex">\({u}_{max}=\)</span> the maximum utility an agent expects to receive when migrating to the corresponding region. <span class="mathjax-tex">\({u}_{current}=\)</span> the utility the agent currently expects to receive if they do not migrate.</p><ol class="u-list-style-none"> <li> <span class="u-custom-list-number">1.</span> <p>The assumptions behind this mechanism is as follows: Agents are unable to directly observe how changing residential location would influence their utilities, and must instead observe the influence of residential location indirectly via the utilities other agents receive.</p> </li> <li> <span class="u-custom-list-number">2.</span> <p>Agents can accurately and fully observe the received utility of all other agents identical to themselves. This is a necessary condition to assume rational decisions made by agents as the model is not stochastic on the CGE side.</p> </li> <li> <span class="u-custom-list-number">3.</span> <p>Cost of migration is not modelled.</p> <p>There is no cost when deciding to migrate between residential locations. There are no costs to purchasing a new property/renting, no income from selling existing property (if any), no time or monetary cost of moving etc. This is due to the lack of a real estate market, which other CGE models have included (Anas and Liu <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2007" title="Anas, A., Liu, Y.: A regional economy, land use, and transportation model (RELU-TRAN©): formulation, algorithm design, and testing.

This is done partially because agents are in actuality not able to predict their expected utility, as well as the fact that within the utility function of the household agents as presented in the model, agents are primarily deciding between consumption and leisure. The mechanism between this tradeoff is time, as consumption is the result of time spent working and leisure is the result of time spent <i>not</i> working. The choice of residential location does not seem an appropriate third decision to include as it is not a time-based decision.</p><p>By separating residential decisions from the endogenous utility function, the migration mechanism trades accuracy for simplicity and flexibility. While it is true that this mechanism is not a highly accurate representation of migration, it has the advantage of being able to be added or removed to the model at will by the analyst, since it is not endogenous to the utility function of the agents. The result is that the analyst can look at short-term effects of economic shocks (such as the construction/improvement of road infrastructure like the WestConnex) as well as gauge the rough long-term effects of such decisions. More detailed migration models can be included in future work, but for this study, the current formulation is believed to be sufficient.</p><h4 class="c-article__sub-heading c-article__sub-heading--small" id="Sec7">Firms</h4><p>Firms maximise profits subject to a monetary constraint, but since firms earn zero economic profit, their behaviour is modelled as a cost minimisation problem with production levels determined from market equilibrium.

The two levels of trips are then connected by assuming that demand in the travel zone OD pairs change in the same proportions as their corresponding regional OD pairs. This implies that spatial trip patterns within regions do not vary as the economy shifts. A justification for this assumption is that land use patterns within regions are controlled by local planning laws, and thus are likely to scale together.</p><p>From this assumption, the total daily trips at the regional level from the CGE submodel <img src="//media.springernature.com/lw43/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Figy_HTML.gif" style="width:43px;max-width:none;" alt=""> and <img src="//media.springernature.com/lw41/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Figz_HTML.gif" style="width:41px;max-width:none;" alt=""> as split into time periods <img src="//media.springernature.com/lw33/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Figaa_HTML.gif" style="width:33px;max-width:none;" alt=""> may be represented by a separate set of travel zone OD demands for each time period (e.g. hourly flows). These travel zone OD demands need not sum to the total demand from the CGE submodel; they just need to be representative of typical conditions across the time period. In addition, the model allows for travel zone trip patterns to differ between household and freight trips, and therefore the calculations for household and freight trip costs are kept separate.</p><p>Furthermore, it may be computationally difficult to simulate the full road network due to the number of iterations required in the full model or the spatial extent of the CGE submodel.

The 2,404 travel zones in the STM covering the contiguous Sydney urban area were adopted for set <i>Z</i>, as well as the four time periods of ‘AM peak’, ‘interpeak’, ‘PM peak’ and ‘night’ for set <i>T</i>.</p><p>The road network is a condensed version of the 2011 STM network, which originally contained 63,747 links and 25,268 nodes. Even though this network is used in an existing four-step model, the multiple iterations required between the CGE and transport submodels made it necessary to simplify the network to a core structure appropriate for strategic modelling, in order to keep computation times reasonable. This involved removing links that would be insignificant to the model results, combining links where possible and checking for network consistency.</p><p>Starting from the original STM network, all links outside the Sydney SA2 regions <i>R</i> as well as all local and sub-arterial roads (and corresponding isolated nodes) were removed. This resulted in a number of extraneous midblock nodes along the remaining arterials, highways and freeways which no longer served any technical purpose. A macro was written to scan through every node in the network, identify midblock nodes and remove them by combining links. Further reductions were made by reclassifying all roads to either arterials or freeways, simplifying freeway interchange structures by combining freeway ramp lanes with mainline lanes, and removing additional midblock nodes along freeways. The final step was to rectify inconsistencies generated in the network that would prevent the model from operating correctly. All loop links (links that had identical start and end nodes), duplicate links (where a set of links shared common start and end nodes), dead-ends and isolated nodes were removed.

Each travel zone centroid was then allocated to the nearest node by Euclidean distance, and approximate travel times by local or arterial roads were compared to allocate the travel zone OD trips into direct or network trips. This provided network OD matrices to enable the calibration of the link parameters. Following a number of runs of the transport submodel in which the link parameters were adjusted until the travel times closely matched those observed in Google Maps, the link parameters were finalised as:</p><ul class="u-list-style-bullet"> <li> <p><i>Arterials</i> 50 km/h free-flow speed; 1000 veh/h capacity; BPR multiplier of 1, BPR power of 5.</p> </li> <li> <p><i>Freeways</i> 75 km/h free-flow speed; 1500 veh/h capacity; BPR multiplier of 0.1, BPR power of 6.</p> </li> </ul><h3 class="c-article__sub-heading" id="Sec20">CGE submodel calibration</h3><p>Once the transport submodel calibration process is complete, the CGE model is calibrated to match travel demand “exactly”, which means that there is no need for the transport demand parameters to be estimated statistically.Calibration of a CGE model involves the specification of a benchmark economy that is assumed to be at equilibrium. The parameters of the CGE model are then back-calculated from the benchmark such that the model replicates the benchmark when run without changes.

Scenarios 2 to 6 were run for 20 iterations each, although the results largely converged to a band around 5% to 10% above and below the mean results within three iterations. These fluctuations were likely due to convergence criteria in the submodels being set too loosely, which is a subject for future investigation. Each model iteration took around 2 h to solve, almost entirely due to the transport submodel requiring around 30 min to converge for each time period. The transport submodel can be sped up in future models by implementing more efficient assignment algorithms and using multiple cores for processing.</p><p>For the model that did not include residential migration (i.e. for results presented in Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab1">1</a>), in Scenario 2, the widening of the M5 Motorway resulted in a total increase in welfare of $A259.10 million per year. The largest beneficiaries per capita were residents in Region 9, largely due to the M5’s role as the primary road connection between Region 9 and the Sydney Central Business District. Correspondingly, non-transport production in Region 9 increased, but Region 13 had the largest increase due to its higher concentration of industrial activity. Residents in Regions 3, 5, 13 and 14 near the route of the M5 also experienced significant gains in welfare. On the other hand, residents in Region 8 experienced a slight disbenefit due to poorer traffic conditions from induced demand. The addition of lanes on the M4 Motorway in Scenario 3 led to more evenly spread gains in welfare across the metropolitan area, totalling A$300.17 million per year. Regions 1, 8 and 10 experienced the fewest benefits, being some of the furthest regions from the improvements. In general, the M4 widening in Scenario 3 only resulted in marginal welfare improvements from Scenario 2, with leisure time, travel time and household travel demand similar to the M5 widening alone.</p><p>The introduction of new WestConnex links between the M4 and M5 via the Sydney Central Business District in Scenarios 4, 5 and 6 led to significant welfare gains of A$593.14 million, A$881.83 million and A$1,602.84 million per year respectively, with every region experiencing improvements. In these three scenarios, Region 3 covering the Sydney Central Business District enjoyed the largest per capita increase in welfare, reflecting its position around the centre of WestConnex. In Scenario 4, the benefits were relatively spread across the metropolitan area, but over the progressive introduction of WestConnex, the benefits shifted towards the inner regions served by the new motorway. By Scenario 6, the inner city regions of 4, 5 and 6 in addition to Region 3 were the largest beneficiaries, with outlying regions in particular Regions 8 and 10 again experiencing the fewest benefits. In terms of non-transport production, Regions 3 to 6 correspondingly experienced the largest proportional increases in output due to their proximity to WestConnex. Production reduced in some outlying regions due to competition from the inner regions. In all scenarios and for all regions, the output of the transport industry shrunk in line with the reduction in freight requirements from improved travel times.</p><p>For results presented for the model including migration (i.e. for Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab2">2</a>), it is important to note the large EV values presented in Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab2">2</a> should not be taken at face value. The mechanism of residential migration presented in this model is simplistic, and is intended to have higher flexibility in place of accuracy. It is likely that the lack of migration costs and the assumption that regions can contain an infinite number of household agents heavily skews the results. As such, the EV values presented in Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab2">2</a> should not be directly compared with those presented in Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab1">1</a>.</p><p>Instead, the sign of the EV values obtained is noted to be mostly negative, which suggests that the WestConnex project may provide negative EV in the very long run once agents are able to move to their location of choice. It is also possible that the changes in utilities household agents experience as a result of their relocation is very large compared to the travel time changes the WestConnex project provides. It is more likely that the latter case is true, as the assumptions in the model of no relocation costs and regions having infinite housing capacity would incentivise heavy congregation in city CBD regions (region 13). Better modelling of residential location choice in future studies would improve the analytic capabilities of the model.</p><p>In both iterations of the model, however, the comparison of different scenarios' outcomes can be used as a decision-making criterion, policy recommendation, and economic implication. For Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab1">1</a>, scenarios 4, 5, and 6 can be considered if total welfare gains are a priority, as these scenarios resulted in significant total welfare gains. In the same vein, the negative welfare impact of scenarios 2 and 3 in region 8 should be considered when making decisions on these two scenarios. If equal benefit distribution across regions is a key decision-making criterion, scenarios 3 and 4 can be chosen because they have the most evenly distributed welfare impact with the lowest normalised standard deviation of all scenarios in terms of welfare effect. If a particular region has received additional attention, scenarios can be chosen based on their impact on that region. As illustrated in Fig. <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="figure anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Fig10">10</a>, scenarios 4,5,6 benefit regions 3 and 6, respectively, whereas scenarios 2 and 3 benefit regions 9 and 14, respectively. Non-transport production output, labour time, leisure time, household travel time, and household travel demand are some of the other criteria provided by the model for multi-criteria decision making.</p><div class="c-article-section__figure js-c-reading-companion-figures-item" data-test="figure" data-container-section="figure" id="figure-10" data-title="Fig. 10"><figure><figcaption><b id="Fig10" class="c-article-section__figure-caption" data-test="figure-caption-text">Fig. 10</b></figcaption><div class="c-article-section__figure-content"><div class="c-article-section__figure-item"><a class="c-article-section__figure-link" data-test="img-link" data-track="click" data-track-label="image" data-track-action="view figure" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x/figures/10" rel="nofollow"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="//media.springernature.com/lw685/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig10_HTML.png?as=webp"><img aria-describedby="Fig10" src="//media.springernature.com/lw685/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig10_HTML.png" alt="figure 10" loading="lazy" width="685" height="503"></picture></a></div><div class="c-article-section__figure-description" data-test="bottom-caption" id="figure-10-desc"><p>Regions equivalent variations (EV) per capita (2011 A$)</p></div></div><div class="u-text-right u-hide-print"><a class="c-article__pill-button" data-test="article-link" data-track="click" data-track-label="button" data-track-action="view figure" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x/figures/10" data-track-dest="link:Figure10 Full size image" aria-label="Full size image figure 10" rel="nofollow"><span>Full size image</span><svg width="16" height="16" focusable="false" role="img" aria-hidden="true" class="u-icon"><use xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="#icon-eds-i-chevron-right-small"></use></svg></a></div></figure></div><p>For Table <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab2">2</a> results, decisions should be made in line with the process outlined immediately above, but instead of considering EVs (which are likely highly inaccurate and reflect the results of the migration process rather than the infrastructure project), consideration should instead be made for the total travel time that agents experience, with emphasis placed on minimising travel times.</p><p>Figure <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="figure anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Fig11">11</a> shows changes in link volumes from Scenario 1 to Scenario 6.

On the other hand, many links feeding the motorway network experienced increases in demand. Overall, there was a 0.1737% increase in household travel demand (induced demand) across the whole metropolitan area. The network improvements led to a reduction in household travel time of 3.051%, even after accounting for induced demand. The travel time saved was retained by households as leisure time, and the relative reduction in the cost of leisure travel compared to commuting travel led to further substitution towards leisure time from labour time.</p><div class="c-article-section__figure js-c-reading-companion-figures-item" data-test="figure" data-container-section="figure" id="figure-11" data-title="Fig. 11"><figure><figcaption><b id="Fig11" class="c-article-section__figure-caption" data-test="figure-caption-text">Fig. 11</b></figcaption><div class="c-article-section__figure-content"><div class="c-article-section__figure-item"><a class="c-article-section__figure-link" data-test="img-link" data-track="click" data-track-label="image" data-track-action="view figure" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x/figures/11" rel="nofollow"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="//media.springernature.com/lw685/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig11_HTML.png?as=webp"><img aria-describedby="Fig11" src="//media.springernature.com/lw685/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs11116-022-10276-x/MediaObjects/11116_2022_10276_Fig11_HTML.png" alt="figure 11" loading="lazy" width="685" height="911"></picture></a></div><div class="c-article-section__figure-description" data-test="bottom-caption" id="figure-11-desc"><p>Change in link volumes from Scenario 1 to Scenario 6</p></div></div><div class="u-text-right u-hide-print"><a class="c-article__pill-button" data-test="article-link" data-track="click" data-track-label="button" data-track-action="view figure" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x/figures/11" data-track-dest="link:Figure11 Full size image" aria-label="Full size image figure 11" rel="nofollow"><span>Full size image</span><svg width="16" height="16" focusable="false" role="img" aria-hidden="true" class="u-icon"><use xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="#icon-eds-i-chevron-right-small"></use></svg></a></div></figure></div><p>To provide more detailed information about the transport related indicators, Tables <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab3">3</a> and <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab4">4</a> present the percentage change in travel time for different activity types.

The greatest reduction in travel time is commute time in this model iteration instead of leisure travel time. There are instead increases in travel time in scenario 2, but this returns to being decreases in travel time in scenarios 3–6. There is still a decreasing trend in travel times as the project continues (with a slightly smaller decrease in scenario 4 compared to 3). The increases in scenario 2 is likely a result of the changes in the network due to migration causing overcrowding in certain regions. As the project has the smallest impacts at this stage, it is expected that changes in travel time caused by this overcrowding would be significant when compared to the reductions the project would provide. As the project progresses however, the reductions are now significant enough to offset the initial increases. It is worth noting that the large reductions in commuting travel time is likely partially due to the migration; household agents are likely to migrate to locations closer to their place of employment, and in so doing contributes to a reduction in commute travel time.</p><p>Another advantage of the proposed transport-based CGE model is that accessibility indicators derived from the true transport (the relatively close to the real world transport network of this paper) network can be extracted in interaction with economic indicators.

empirical robustness, a sensitivity analysis is performed. This is accomplished by altering particular input variables one at a time to examine the degree of change in the model's outputs; significant unintuitive changes in the model’s outputs from minor input changes would suggest potential model instability.</p><p>Testing is carried out on variables from both the CGE and the transport submodels of the integrated model. Endowment of capital (<span class="mathjax-tex">\({e}_{k}\)</span>) and endowment of time (<span class="mathjax-tex">\({e}_{t}\)</span>) from CGE submodel and link free flow costs (<span class="mathjax-tex">\({z}_{0}\)</span>) and link capacities (<span class="mathjax-tex">\({q}_{c}\)</span>) from transport submodel are the variables that have altered.</p><p>The two CGE submodel variables are selected as they are easy to understand motivators for household agent behaviour. Changes in the model outputs should be able to be reasonably intuitively understood based on changes in these variables. Abnormal changes are therefore evidence for model instability. The transport submodel variables were similarly selected as they are intuitive to understand. Additionally, typical hard infrastructure upgrades primarily affect these two aspects of transportation, and so ensuring they do not contribute to significant model instability is especially important for policy considerations.</p><p>For each variable outlined above, four tests are conducted with reducing and increasing the input variable by 5% and 10%. The stability of outputs was then assessed by comparing results to the base model. The equivalent variation (EV) of the network and the percentage change in income compared to total household income in the base scenario are calculated.</p><p>Tables <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab7">7</a> and <a data-track="click" data-track-label="link" data-track-action="table anchor" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#Tab8">8</a> shows the sensitivity analysis on the impact of variables from the CGE submodel and transport submodel on EV and the percentage change in income compared to total household income in the base scenario.</p><div class="c-article-table" data-test="inline-table" data-container-section="table" id="table-7"><figure><figcaption class="c-article-table__figcaption"><b id="Tab7" data-test="table-caption">Table 7 Sensitivity analysis on impact of endowment of capital (<span class="mathjax-tex">\({e}_{k})\)</span> and endowment of time (<span class="mathjax-tex">\({e}_{t})\)</span> on EV and the percentage change in income compared to total household income in base scenario</b></figcaption><div class="u-text-right u-hide-print"><a class="c-article__pill-button" data-test="table-link" data-track="click" data-track-action="view table" data-track-label="button" rel="nofollow" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x/tables/7" aria-label="Full size table 7"><span>Full size table</span><svg width="16" height="16" focusable="false" role="img" aria-hidden="true" class="u-icon"><use xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="#icon-eds-i-chevron-right-small"></use></svg></a></div></figure></div><div class="c-article-table" data-test="inline-table" data-container-section="table" id="table-8"><figure><figcaption class="c-article-table__figcaption"><b id="Tab8" data-test="table-caption">Table 8 Sensitivity analysis impact of link capacities (<span class="mathjax-tex">\({q}_{c}\)</span>) and link free flow costs (<span class="mathjax-tex">\({z}_{0})\)</span> on EV and the percentage change in income compared to total household income in base scenario</b></figcaption><div class="u-text-right u-hide-print"><a class="c-article__pill-button" data-test="table-link" data-track="click" data-track-action="view table" data-track-label="button" rel="nofollow" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x/tables/8" aria-label="Full size table 8"><span>Full size table</span><svg width="16" height="16" focusable="false" role="img" aria-hidden="true" class="u-icon"><use xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="#icon-eds-i-chevron-right-small"></use></svg></a></div></figure></div><p>Changes in the model outputs for income and utility are intuitively explained from the input variable changes, where any additional costs or reduction in endowments resulted in negative EVs and the reverse resulted in positive EVs with no significant fluctuations in the model outputs. Changes Other economic model outputs (the goods gap and labour gap) follow an intuitive trend. For example, reductions in agent capital endowments lead to a large labour gap in each region, as less labour is supplied at the same demand. In the same line, increasing in network links capacity and decreasing of the links free flow cost resulted in positive EVs and income change as expected without any substantial changes in the model outputs.</p></div></div></section><section data-title="Conclusion"><div class="c-article-section" id="Sec24-section"><h2 class="c-article-section__title js-section-title js-c-reading-companion-sections-item" id="Sec24">Conclusion</h2><div class="c-article-section__content" id="Sec24-content"><p>Existing models in the four-step transport planning framework can simulate travel demands and interactions in transport networks with a high degree of detail, but many rely on fixed economic parameters for markets other than transport and land. With recent interest in the wider economic impacts of transport, CGE models have been increasingly applied to analyse transport projects and policies. Since CGE models are simulators of entire economies, they are able to estimate the magnitude and distribution of impacts both spatially and through markets, while also providing a rich set of outputs including GDP and welfare.</p><p>This paper presented an integrated CGE and transport model and calibrated it for the Sydney road network and economy. The contributions of this model are both conceptual—in applying the CGE submodel as a trip generator and distributor in the four-step framework—and technical—in developing the linkages between the submodels that enable them to be calibrated as full CGE and transport models. Several existing models link CGE and transport network models, but very few incorporate detailed networks or generate a complete set of travel demands (including household and freight), both of which are necessary in the four-step framework. In the presented model, the CGE submodel simulates the behaviour of households and firms interacting in markets, where their behaviour takes trip costs into account. The model then generates trips as a derived demand from agent activities and assigns them to the road network according to user equilibrium, before feeding back trip costs to the CGE submodel. The model was tested by simulating the WestConnex motorway project under construction in Sydney. The results showed significant increases in welfare for regions close to the improvements.</p><p>Like any model, the presented model was built for a purpose—to provide a tool for the rapid strategic assessment of transport projects and policies when economic responses cannot be assumed to remain static. Compared with some activity-based models and discrete choice modelling frameworks, CGE models tend to represent the behaviours of travel markets in less detail, but do provide a comprehensive structure that allows for the incorporation of more complex models where required.</p><p>There are a multitude of avenues for expansion of the presented model. The most immediate feature required in the four-step framework is mode choice. From this, land markets can be incorporated as additional commodities in the CGE framework to replicate the behaviours of a LUTI model. The inclusion of a better and more accurate residential location choice mechanism within the model could also lead to more accurate economic analysis. Incorporating monopolistic competition as per new economic geography models could also be investigated as it would enable the assessment of wider economic impacts stemming from agglomeration. This could lead to further improvements in productivity from increasing returns to scale, and correspondingly worse congestion. Further transport interactions could be added, for example business trips, which may have a significant impact on the productivity of service industries that dominate cities like Sydney.</p><p>While the developed model is investment-driven due to expenditures on capital stock and investment activities, other studies have focussed on models with saving driven closure. For instance, Cardenete and López-Cabaco (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2021" title="Cardenete, M.A., López-Cabaco, R.: Economic and environmental impact of the new Mediterranean rail corridor in Andalusia: a dynamic CGE approach.

Policy 102, 25–34 (2021)" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#ref-CR15" id="ref-link-section-d134015200e17791">2021</a>) provided saving account where the closure establishes the level of investment. In another study by Kim et al. (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2004a" title="Kim, E., Hewings, G.J.D., Hong, C.: An application of an integrated transport network-multiregional CGE model: a framework for the economic analysis of highway projects. Econ. Syst. Res. 16(3), 235–258 (2004a). &#xA; https://doi.org/10.1080/0953531042000239356&#xA; &#xA; " href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#ref-CR30" id="ref-link-section-d134015200e17794">2004a</a>), aggregate savings determine investments. There is only one capital market, and savings come from four main sources: household savings, regional production sector corporate savings, private borrowings from overseas, and government savings. Future work can be directed to providing a saving driven closure for the model. When defining macro closure, the impact on macroeconomic factors should also be considered. Closure rules have a greater impact on macroeconomic factors than on distributional ones, where the effect of the macro adjustment on the size of income distribution is generally minimal and indifferent to the closure rule (Adelman and Robinson <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1988" title="Adelman, I., Robinson, S.: Macroeconomic adjustment and income distribution: alternative models applied to two economies.

Econ. 29(1), 23–44 (1988)" href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#ref-CR1" id="ref-link-section-d134015200e17797">1988</a>).</p><p>While the proposed model in this study is used to assist in capturing the wider economic benefits of implemented policies with a focus on detailed transport behaviour, various studies have assessed the impact of financing methods and expenditure patterns on the economy. Any infrastructure improvement, such as increased capability, must be funded. It should be noted that infrastructure funding may have a significant impact on welfare. The economic effects depend on the magnitude and source of funding (i.e., tax revenues, government funding, or private funding) (Kim et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2017" title="Kim, E., Hewings, G.J., Amir, H.: Economic evaluation of transportation projects: an application of financial computable general equilibrium model.

For instance, the effects of the transportation investment on the Korean economy is analysed by Kim (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 1998" title="Kim, E.: Economic gain and loss from public infrastructure investment. Growth Chang. 29(4), 445–469 (1998). &#xA; https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1468-2257.1998.tb00029.x&#xA; &#xA; " href="/article/10.1007/s11116-022-10276-x#ref-CR29" id="ref-link-section-d134015200e17806">1998</a>). According to results, financing alternatives for infrastructure projects impact elasticities of infrastructure investment such as GDP, exports, private utility, and inflation. The effect of transportation investment on inflation is found to be minimised if transportation investment expenditure is entirely funded by tax revenues. In the same line, Kim et al. (<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2011" title="Kim, E., Kim, H.S., Hewings, G.J.D.: An application of the integrated transport network–multi-regional CGE model an impact analysis of government-financed highway projects.

The simulation results show that public–private partnerships generate greater positive gross economic output and welfare impacts compared to traditional public financing models by reducing the regional economy's collected tax burden. The effect of funding can be divided into two categories: short-term construction and long-term operation and maintenance (Kim et al. <a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 2004b" title="Kim, E., Hewings, G.J., Hong, C.: An application of an integrated transport network-multiregional CGE model: a framework for the economic analysis of highway projects.

Greater focus on including financing method (defining source of financing) and allocation of expenditure pattern could produce an overall impact assessment which could be explored in further research. In addition, future work could be directed to incorporate a saving account in the model to provide a complete impact assessment. The savings account can be used to determine whether transportation development costs will be paid for from government funds or from private savings. The resulting model would provide a universal tool in which a modeller could input proposed changes to a transport network, and from the one model estimate link flows and induced demand, extract welfare metrics and forecast long-term changes to the urban economy.</p></div></div></section> </div> <div id="MagazineFulltextArticleBodySuffix"><section aria-labelledby="Bib1" data-title="References"><div class="c-article-section" id="Bib1-section"><h2 class="c-article-section__title js-section-title js-c-reading-companion-sections-item" id="Bib1">References</h2><div class="c-article-section__content" id="Bib1-content"><div data-container-section="references"><ul class="c-article-references" data-track-component="outbound reference" data-track-context="references section"><li class="c-article-references__item js-c-reading-companion-references-item"><p class="c-article-references__text" id="ref-CR1">Adelman, I., Robinson, S.: Macroeconomic adjustment and income distribution: alternative models applied to two economies.
