Understanding the determinants of commute car choice decision is a potential way to design consistent, proactive policies to discourage car dependency. This study attempts to develop a travel mode choice model for home-to-work commuters in Metro Manila, by taking account of a comprehensive set of determinants, i.e., socioeconomic characteristics, travel behavior, and built environment characteristics. The study used the primary dataset of 3,877 observations gathered in 2017. The developed model was then applied to simulate a percentage share of car choice in response to variation of some variables of interest based on the “what-if” concept. The percentage share of car choice would have been 10.49% less than the current level had the road public transport line density of all the residential areas been maximized up to 154.22 km/km² and had a walk distance from home to the shortest railway station for all the residential areas been no longer than 800 m.
