本文试图了解伦敦老年人和残疾人的模式选择决策，以确定哪些政策最能满足他们的流动性和活动需求。文献综述之后是数据集和建模方法的描述，在这个分析中使用。对汽车使用的边际成本做了两个假设，结果表明，在模式选择决策中，大型投资（汽车、交通卡）不是摊销的，但边际成本需要适当指定。年龄和残疾之间的相互作用影响了公共交通的使用，残疾人倾向于不使用公共交通工具，尽管如果健康的话，老年人会使用公共汽车和有轨电车。当有残疾时，人们对出租车的偏好也会随着年龄的增长而增加。公共交通可达性措施也被发现与公共交通使用的增加有关。
This paper attempts to understand mode choice decisions among older and disabled people in London, with the objective of determining what policies can best meet their mobility and activity needs. A literature review is followed by a description of the data sets and modelling methods used in this analysis. Two assumptions are made on the marginal costs of car usage and it is shown that large investments (car, travelcards) are not amortized in the mode choice decisions made, but that marginal costs need to be appropriately specified. Age and disability interactions are shown to influence public transport use with those with disabilities preferring not to use public transport, although if healthy, older people will use buses and trams. The preference for taxis also increases with age when there is a disability. Public transport accessibility measures were also found to be associated with increased public transport use.
