6 Option analysis
Possible design options in transport include: i) mode; ii) location/route; iii) alignment, iv)
technical solutions; v) interchanges; etc. Different options may have different demand, costs
and impacts.
For option selection, the suggested approach is generally to use Multi-Criteria Analysis for
shortlisting the alternatives, then CBA to compare the results of the shortlisted options and
consequently select the most promising one.
Finally, option analysis can also be used later to review the efficiency of previous designs,
especially when socio-economic circumstances have changed. This can lead to project re-
design.

3.8.1 Travel time
Passengers traffic time savings
The first method is to carry out specific empirical research and/or surveys in that country to
estimate both work and non-work travel time. The approach consists of interviewing
individuals using the stated preference method or conducting multi-purpose
household/business surveys using the revealed preference method and then to estimate a
discrete choice model on these data.
As a second option, value of time can be estimated adopting the cost saving approach.
The recommended process for valuing work time with the cost savings approach is as
below.
• Establishing wage rates for a given country or region: the gross hourly labour cost (Euro
per hour) must be derived from observed (or, in absence, from average national) wage
rates. The main data source should be the national statistical office;
• Adjustment to reflect additional employee related costs: this would include paid holidays;
employment taxes; other compulsory contributions (e.g. employer pension contributions)
and an allowance for overheads required to keep someone employed. Social security
payments and overheads paid by the employer shall therefore be computed and added
to the estimated hourly labour cost.
For non-work travel time, the economic value of time savings is given by the difference
between the marginal valuation of time associated with travelling and that associated with
leisure.
