Title: The effects of urban transportation costs on urban spatial structure with endogenous wage income
Abstract: In this paper, we will incorporate the behavior of firms in their demand for labor, land and transportation, and choice of location in modeling the urban system. Within that framework, it is discussed how an improvement of the transportation system will affect the urban spatial structure, especially how the rent profile in a city will be affected and how the size of both the industrial and residential areas will change when the transportation system is improved. Subsequently, the method of evaluating the effect of improvement of the transportation system on residents' welfare is developed.
