Owen and Levinson [21] had demonstrated the feasibility of accessibility-based mode share modeling and predicted the likelihood that a commuter will choose transit rather than auto for a commute trip based on aggregate characteristics of the surrounding area.
For the fixed mode-share model, the upper-level problem minimizes the total travel time of both cyclists and motorists.
For the variable mode-share model, the upper-level problem includes minimization of both the automobile travel share and the average travel time per unit distance for motorists who keep using automobiles after the implementation of a road diet.

In Melbourne, the following Table 1 compares Trips, VKT and mode share estimated by the model and estimated based on the available data.
Figure 2A shows the simulated effects of each scenario on commuter cycling mode share according to our primary model.
Consistent with the qualitative interviews, workshops, and stated choice transport models (Louviere et al. 2000), we used a relative utility structure to model the influences on mode share.
Overlap in the mode share effects of some policies was evident, but the model continued to distinguish among the RCN, ASBL, and combined best practice policies (see Supplemental Material, Table S7 and Figure S6).

A generalized linear model is employed to capture longitudinal changes in the mode share of students who walk or bike to school based on data collected from 53 schools in the city of Seattle, Washington.
