This study proposes utility-based accessibility measures and a weibit-based analysis method for analyzing multi-modal transportation network vulnerability. To account for the multi-dimensional travel choice behavior in multi-modal transportation networks, an advanced weibit-based combined modal split and traffic assignment model is adopted to derive the accessibility measures based on the weibit-expected travel disutility from both route choice and mode choice dimensions. The accessibility at the modal split level is derived from the nested weibit model, while that at the route choice level is obtained based on the path-size weibit model. The proposed weibit-based vulnerability measures are inherently suitable for assessing the relative degradation in network performance and can measure the vulnerability of networks with heterogeneous scales without overestimating the importance of modes or routes sharing similar features. Using a simplified multi-modal transportation network of Hong Kong, numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the properties of the proposed multi-modal vulnerability analysis. The results indicate that the proposed analysis can effectively address similarity and heterogeneity issues in the analysis of choice behavior and network vulnerability, which are often ignored by the traditional logit-based measures.
