Abstract This paper presents the results of a research project which examined some of these issues by simulating the effects of various TCP proposals on work travel for Boston's North Shore. A multinomial logit model of travel demand was used to predict traveler responses and changes in consumer's surplus. For transit improvement strategies, costs were computed with a process model. These models were employed to predict the monetized value of welfare losses and gains of the TCP strategies. Inferences about the effects of TCP on urban form were made based on the welfare change calculations. This analysis attempts to determine the costs of current political constraints which limit the set of feasible TCP strategies.
