This is the first of two papers presenting the structure and the empirical estimation of a planning land-use—transportation model for the San Francisco Bay Area. The model is based on random utility theory and considers in an integrated way the location of urban economic activity and housing, and urban travel. The model is formulated as a nonlinear optimization problem and is shown to result in expressions which are consistent with behavior at the individual level.
