Hypothesis developed resulted from analysis of relationships encountered during development of modal split model for Portland, Oregon-Vancouver, Washington metropolitan area; auto ownership dominated all other factors in explaining trip-making split between auto and transit travel; for any given level of auto ownership in area, transit use was predetermined regardless of quality of service; auto ownership estimating model was developed combining persons per dwelling unit, median income and relative accessibility into estimating equation for auto ownership; resulting auto ownership estimates were then employed in modal split model to determine transit use for any given system configuration.
