(a) Estimate the total demand in the two directions, in vehicles and in people, by 15-minute period. (b) If the four firms are each individually willing to start 15 or 30 minutes earlier (but not later, and not at any other interval, such as 23 minutes earlier), develop a plan that will best reduce the peak demand on the arterial. Summarize the resultant total demand as in (a). Discuss whether the plan you recommend might result in shifts in the pattern of people coming to work (that is, the temporal distribution for each first) and/or in the auto occupancy.

Commuters choose auto or bus for their trips. The utility function for each travel mode was calibrated as follows: where V=C-0.10* X₁ -0.13* X₂-0.12 X3-0.0045 X4 * V = observable utilities; C = constant; X₁ = waiting time (min); X₂ = travel time (min); X3 = parking time (min); X₁ = out-of-pocket cost (cents). The values of the parameters in the above utility function for each mode are shown below.
