Abstract

A systems modelling study of fuel consumption and pollution by road transport in the Melbourne Metropolitan Region is described. Historical data for the period 1976- 81 were used to calibrate the network- based urpol /poldif model, which was then used to investigate the possible influences of changes in travel demand, vehicle fleet composition, and transport technology on fuel use and pollutants, at the system- wide level.
