Summary

       The current parameters of vehicle operating cost (VOC) used in Taiwan are from “The Survey Analysis of Vehicle Operating Cost and Promotion Application of Economic Benefits Evaluation for the Transportation Construction Project” published by the Institute of Transportation in 2010 and 2011. Considering the previous survey is 10 years ago and the overall domestic economic environment and vehicle technology are different in the past 10 years, therefore, it is necessary to review and analyze the applicability and important issues of the current vehicle operating cost data, and re-investigate and update the parameter values to facilitate the economic benefits evaluation results of transportation construction projects to be more accurate and credible.   

The important achievements of this Project include:

1. Reviewed the status and development trend of vehicle operating cost (VOC) in advanced countries, summarize and conclude the important lessons Taiwan can learn from.

2. Reviewed the application of current data from three aspects of (1) definition and connotation, (2) parameter estimation method, (3) survey method of the vehicle operating cost (VOC) to submit a total of 9 important topics, and propose future adjustment recommendations.

3. Studied the feasibility of applying current and future information and communication technology (ICT) to assist in the collection of vehicle operating cost (VOC) data, and to use text analysis technology to conduct trial investigations on the price information of related items such as tires, vehicles and oil. 

4. Propose a new parameter setting and data acquisition method for vehicle operating cost (VOC) as the basis to investigate and plan forward the survey plan and complete the trial survey operation.
