The practical experience of traffic development indicates that there are some problems in increasing network traffic capacity by traditional means ignoring travel behavior. In order to increase the current capacity, this paper focuses on studying the relation between network traffic capacity and travel behavior choice, and explores a way to select individuals as objectives to study the network traffic capacity. Based on the space-time consumption method, the relations between travel speed, travel distance, travel mode and traffic capacity are discussed respectively, the specific influence trends of these three aspects are obtained. This paper constructs a simple traffic capacity model considering mode choice under a certain modal ratio, and the internal binary logit model is calibrated by RP survey in peak hour in Tai’an. This paper can provide reference for the calculation and modeling of traffic capacity, as well as the suggestions for relevant departments in traffic demand management.
