Accessibility long term perspectives

In: Journal of Transport and Land Use, 1 (2) 5-22.  PDF The paper reflects about the effects of improved accessibility and its correlated lower generalized cost of contact at a number of different spatial and temporal scales based on a conceptual model and empirical data analysis.

Design an Application of a Travel Survey for European Long-distance Trips Based on an International Network of Expertise

Within the fifth Framework Programme, the European Commission, Directorate-General for Energy and Transport, has started a project on long-distance passenger mobility in co-operation with an international consortium of firms and research organisations. Passenger transport statistics at an European level are needed to support the Common Transport Policy – More

Models without (personal) data?

Travel demand models have massively increased their data demand in scope and scale, and, as a consequence, their complexity has increased substantially. At this point, it is tempting to contradict this trend and explore the formulation of an alternative travel demand model that requires only aggregate and anonymous More

Mobility Biographies

A Life-course Approach to Travel Behaviour and Residential Choice (D-A-CH) In recent years, the mobility biography approach has been developed to study stability and changes in travel behaviour of individuals over their life course. Such changes are expected to become increasingly complex in the future due to societal More

Post-Car World

The goal of this project is to explore the future of mobility through the role of the car. The main originality of this research is to raise the following problem: «What, if the world were a post-car world?». The basic idea is to define a hypothetical situation where More

Continuous Target Based Planning

An important aspect of the creation of models for traffic planning is the question of the need for movement in the model. If one uses a microscopic model in which individual persons will be represented through agents, it will allow the question to be modelled intuitively through the More
