The AIUTO (Assessment of Innovative Urban Transport Options) project is a Europe-wide investigation into urban transport management with emphasis on the modelling of demand management measures. The York Case Study concentrates on proposed alterations to improve the service to one of York's Park and Ride sites with the aim of promoting a mode-shift to park and ride use for commuters. The work was split between the three groups working on the project so that each applied their own models for assessing relative performances of several schemes pertaining to the proposed alterations. The purpose of this study is twofold: an assessment of the schemes and an assessment of the models used. The paper discusses how the two issues are intricately related. (A)
