Destination Choice and Land Use in the Øresund region - A Modelling approach

The Øresund Traffic Model is designed to forecast the future amount of traffic on the Fixed Link between Copenhagen and Malmö, it is developed for Øresundskonsortiet by COMVIN J/V. This paper gives an overview of the short distance model, which is one of several sub-models in the Øresund Traffic Model. The short distance model has trips made in the region defined by Skåne and the Hovedstad region as its scope. It is an destination/mode/route choice model. As an option, it can be used as a land use model. Economic and cultural barrier effects for trips between Denmark and Sweden are explicitly incorporated in the model
