AbstractThis paper describes the development of the Egypt Intercity Transportation Model, designed to assess alternative transportation investment, maintenance, operating and pricing policies within Egypt. The Intercity Model encompasses movements of both intercity freight and intercity passengers on highway, railway, and waterways, and predicts transportation system performance, costs, and impacts resulting from different policies that may be specified. The Model incorporates a number of state-of-the-art analytical procedures and features particularly suited to analyzing transportation problems in developing countries, including: (1) An equilibration procedure which provides a simultaneous solution of the generation, distribution, modal split and assignment problems; (2) Interactions among investment, maintenance, operating and pricing policies through the use of simulation models (rather than closed-form functions) to estimate link costs; and (3) Explicit treatment of constraints on availability of transportation services—not only link capacity (congestion), but also fleet capacity and the potential inability of modes to satisfy all of the latent demand.
