Abstract

•Study investigates intermodality's role in influencing traveler decisions.•SEM model, based on Ajzen's TRA, introduces intermodality as a moderator.•Intermodality radically affects rail ridership.•Lack of intermodality hinders rail use more than low comfort, security, speed.•Perceived environmental benefits positively influence travel frequency.
