Abstract

For accurate demand forecasting of railway logistics, we estimated intercity freight mode choice models based on the binary logit model and using production-consumption data from the Korea Transport Database. We estimated two types of models and compared the results by major item of railway logistics, such as container, cement, and steel: 1) The aggregate freight mode choice models are based on the revealed preference (RP) data and 2) The disaggregate models are based on the stated preference (SP) data. With respect to the container, the travel time variable was found to be statistically significant; however, the travel cost variable was not statistically significant in the RP model, while the travel cost variable was statistically significant in the SP model. For cement and steel, the travel cost variables were statistically significant but the travel time variables were not statistically significant in either the RP or the SP models. These results are inconsistent with results from previous studies based on SP data, which showed that the travel time variables were significant. Consequently, it can be concluded that the travel time factor should be considered in container transport, but that this factor is negligible for cement and steel transport.

본 연구는 공로로의 화물수송 편중에 따른 사회 경제적 문제를 해결하는 데 정확한 화물수요예측이 필요함에 따라 환적과 셔틀을 고려한 생산지-소비지(P-C) 자료를 활용하여 화물수단선택모형을 구축하였다. 모형은 집계적 형태의 RP 자료와 비집계적 형태의 SP 자료를 모두 활용하여 구축하였다. 철도수송이 이루어지는 주요한 품목 - 컨테이너, 양회, 철강 - 에 대하여 모형을 구축하였는데, 컨테이너는 기존의 SP기반 모형과는 달리 본 연구의 RP기반 집계모형에서는 타 품목에 비해 수송시간에 대해 민감한 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 양회와 철강은 RP, SP기반 모형 모두에서 수송비용에 민감한 것으로 나타났다. 기존의 대다수 SP기반 화물수단선택모형에서는 양회와 철강의 수단선택에서 수송시간이 일정 수준의 영향을 미친다는 것과는 다르게 본 연구의 RP기반 집계모형에서는 수송시간의 모수가 유효하지 않았다. 향후 철도수송을 보다 육성하기 위하여 컨테이너와 다른 품목간에 차별화된 전략이 필요함을 알 수 있었다.
