The close relationship between land use and the need for transport infrastructure imply that we can gain by integrating transport- and area planning. This report describes how the Regional transport model for Oslo and Akershus (RETRO, Vold 1999) and Integrated model of residential and employment location in a metropolitan region (IMREL, Boyce and Mattsson 1999) were combined into the transport- and area-planning model for the greater Oslo area RETRO/IMREL (version 1.0). Data obtained for the period around 1998 were used to estimate the model. In a simple model application with two alternative scenarios with respectively tripled fuel tax and quadrupled toll ring charge are compared relative to a reference scenario. The model responses were adequate.
