Transport network data for the Tokyo metropolitan area (1995, 2015) used in the quantitative urban model of the Tsukuba Express

This dataset contains nationwide transport network data for Japan. It was used to compute zone-to-zone generalized travel costs for the quantitative urban model (QUM) of the Tokyo metropolitan area in Segi and Yamaguchi (Journal of JSCE, under review). The model evaluates the effects of the Tsukuba Express (TX), which opened in 2005. The data include nationwide road, expressway, local bus, highway bus, and railway networks for 1995 and 2015, and a 2015 railway network without the TX for the counterfactual scenario. Shortest paths were searched between the planning zones of the 2018 Tokyo Metropolitan Area Person Trip Survey (615 zones).
