    This subject paper is intended to be a research paper delving into different views and analyses from various sources. The views and analyses as contained in this paper are intended to stimulate public discussion and input to the planning process of the "HK2030 Study" and do not necessarily represent the views of the HKSARG. WORKING PAPER NO. 47 TRANSPORT ASSESSMENT FOR THE STAGE 4 DEVELOPMENT SCENARIOS PURPOSE 1. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the transport assessments for the Stage 4 Development Scenarios and the transport infrastructure requirements. BACKGROUND 2. Stage 3 of the Study had formulated two development options, namely the Consolidation and Decentralisation Options, with matched strategic transport infrastructure development programme for consultation. The Stage 4 of the Study has finalized a preferred development option, taking into account comments received and extracting the more desirable elements from the previous options to form the Reference Scenario. A set of “What If” Scenarios has also been developed to cater for possible changes in population and economic growth, but for transport infrastructure requirement assessment, only the High Population and High Economic Growth Scenario (HPGS) is worth for testing. A series of transport assessments has been carried out to examine if the transport infrastructure development programme as recommended in Stage 3 can satisfy the travel demand of the preferred development scenarios. 3. The Stage 4 transport assessment has also incorporated the latest plans and reports

    Hindawi Advances in Civil Engineering Volume 2018, Article ID 7193948, 12 pages https://doi.org/10.1155/2018/7193948 Research Article Traffic Allocation Mode of PPP Highway Project: A Risk Management Approach Jie Li , Peng Mao, Zhaohua Dai, and Jing Zhang School of Civil Engineering, Nanjing Forestry University, Nanjing, Jiangsu 210037, China Correspondence should be addressed to Jie Li; [email protected] Received 20 April 2018; Revised 8 July 2018; Accepted 5 August 2018; Published 24 September 2018 Academic Editor: Bill Zhao Copyright © 2018 Jie Li et al. )is is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Highway projects are the favorites of public-private partnership (PPP) investors because of their stable cash flow. However, there are high uncertainties in terms of traffic volume, resulting in unpredictable revenues, which has drawn major concern of PPP investors. For a road in a network, the traffic volume is determined by the traffic allocation rate, which is affected not only by the total traffic volume in the region but also by other traffic risk factors, such as travel time, toll rates, and travelling comfort. )e conventional traffic allocation forecasting technique predominantly depends on the travel time, overlooking other risk factors. Consequently, traffic allocation forecasting is usually inaccurate. To improve the accuracy of traffic allocation forecasting in PPP road projects, this paper proposes to consider the effect of traffic risks together with traffic time by using the mean utility. Multinomial logit (MNL) model based on mean utility is used to predict the traffic allocation rate.
