Using the rider survey data collected from Hudson-Bergen Light Rail Transit System in New Jersey, this paper investigated the residential relocating decisions of the riders who have been riding the LRT for a period of time. Using the Heckman’s sample selection model, the paper extends the current mobility literature by describing not only a rider’s likelihood to move as a result of the new LRT service but also the movers’ orientation toward their residence distances to LRT stations. Information on the socio-economic characteristics of the movers and their residence distances to LRT stations would help planners and developers identify areas where housing growth associated with specific characteristics of the riders will occur, and plan for these areas to provide affordable housing and amenities for relocating residents.

新型轻轨交通服务对骑手住宅迁移决策的影响

本文使用从新泽西州哈德森-伯根轻轨交通系统收集的骑手调查数据，调查了乘坐LRT一段时间的骑手的住宅安置决策。通过使用Heckman的样本选择模型，本文不仅描述了骑手由于新的轻快车服务而移动的可能性，而且还描​​述了行人朝向他们到LRT站的居住距离的方向，从而扩展了当前的流动性文献。有关搬家者的社会经济特征及其到轻轨站的居住距离的信息，将有助于规划者和开发商确定将发生与驾车者特定特征相关的住房增长的区域，并计划为这些区域提供经济适用的住房和便利的安置场所。居民。
