摘要：

There have been very few studies undertaken on the comparative levels of price elasticities of travel demand derived from before-after data and cross sectional demand models. A 20% fare reduction in Sydney (Australia) in 1976 provided a suitable opportunity to undertake such a comparison. Furthermore the influence of misperception of actual fare changes and the role of other non-cost factors were investigated so as to determine the true impact of the fare reduction on travel demand. After allowing for captive rail-travellers, the cross price elasticity of demand is 0.14, adding further support to the limited impact of fare changes on levels of public transport patronage. © 1979.
