Attributes contributing to the travel behaviour of trail runners
… studies have focussed either on attributes or travel behaviour, but the combination of attributes and travel behaviour measured in a single study is very limited. In addition, to limited research where attributes and travel behaviour are combined in a single study, there are also a limited …

The impact of ride-hailing services on travel behaviour
… our transport systems has rapidly transformed travel behavior. Ride-hailing services provide multi-modality and fill transit gaps, but they also impact the modal share of other modes such as public transit and car ownership. This study delves into links between ride-hailing services and private …

Travel behaviour dynamics: a mobility biography study towards change
Travel demand management (TDM) strategies continue to receive attention in recent years as a means of managing congestion in cities and promoting more sustainable transport systems. Most TDM measures focus on effecting travel behaviour change amongst commuters. Clearly such measures are likely to …

Understanding Residential Relocation and Travel Behaviour: Mechanisms, Inequalities, and Implications
Active travel, such as walking or cycling, is an effective way to incorporate physical activity into daily routines, which is beneficial for health. Research has extensively examined how features of the built environment facilitate or hinder active travel, though findings – particularly on the …

Travel behaviour of Chinese tourists living in the city of Beijing, China
… and rationale for the study that identifies the travel behaviour of Chinese tourists, and the expectation and perception regarding South Africa. Based on the findings, some recommendations for marketing strategies and implementation are given, in addition to suggestions for future research …

Travel behaviour and its cultural context : an empirical study of the Vietnamese community in Australia
… about their country of origin. Decisions to travel to the former homeland may be prompted by a desire to maintain Vietnamese identity and meaning, thereby enabling travellers to maintain a degree of normality and to adapt better in the new society. In the present study the researcher is …

Modelling the Impact of Built Environment, Geographical Scales and Latent Constructs On Individual Travel Behaviour
… propensión al viaje. El concepto Propensity to Travel ha sido desarrollado exclusivamente para la tesis. Igualmente, el desarrollo de un modelo conjunto RC-Number of trips basado en tres escalas de medida representa innovación en cuanto a la comparación de las escalas geográficas, que no había …

Large-scale workforce relocations : what are the opportunities to influence travel behaviour towards sustainable modes?
Individual behaviour, including that of travel behaviour, can become habitual when repeated within a stable context. The context change or disruption brought about by a biographical event can remove the habitual automation, necessitating people to revert to a decision making process in order to …

Everyday life and travel behaviour of families with children: A case study in outer London
This PhD thesis explores the travel behaviour of families with children in a suburban area in outer London, and its potential to become more environmentally sustainable. The study employed a comprehensive everyday life perspective on family travel behaviour, looking at whole households and their …

Understanding the impact of built environment on travel behaviour with activity-based modelling: Evidence from Beijing
… factor in shaping and changing people’s travel behaviour. However, many gaps still exist in the understanding of the direction, size and mechanism of this influence. This thesis explores the complexities in the influence of the built environment on daily travel using a behaviour-oriented, …

Street network connectivity and local travel behaviour: assessing the relationship of travel outcomes to disparate pedestrian and vehicular street network connectivity
… street network connectivity differences across travel modes with travel behaviour – mode choice, distance traveled and number of trips. To date research on travel behaviour relationships with urban form has not developed empirical evidence on street designs as distinct networks for walking and …

Measuring and analysing the impacts of travel demand management interventions on commuter travel behaviour : the case of rail-based park-and-ride facilities in Cape Town
… of park-and-ride facility upgrades on commuting behaviour at selected rail stations. The study analysed data from two sources covering the period before and after park-andride facility upgrades at three affected rail stations (Brackenfell, Kraaifontein and Kuilsrivier) and three control stations. …

Hotel attributes as viewed by the mature Australian leisure traveller
… As a result the number of mature Australians travelling can be expected to increase. Despite this increase, little is known about the travel behaviour of this market segment. This study reviews the travel behaviour, the reasons for travel and the expectations and opinions of mature Australian …

A geospatial investigation of destination choice modelling. The case of the MYCITI integrated rapid transit bus system, Cape Town, South Africa
… separation of activities forms the essence of travel demand, incorporating the effects of geospatial properties in travel behaviour modelling has only been formally studied in recent years. These recent studies noted a trend proposing that geospatial properties can influence travel behaviour. …

Disaggregate Probabilistic Models to Predict Trip Generation Propensities and Mode Choice Behaviour
Travel behaviour models serve as important tools to understand what factors affect trip generation and preferred mode of travel in different contexts. These models can be used to quantify the impacts and assess the consequences of development plans and policy actions. Growing populations and the …

Sperimentazione e modellizzazione di un programma di cambiamento volontario del comportamento di viaggio
… to gain a better understanding of individual behaviour change processes and in particular assess the efficacy of travel behaviour change strategies. This work aims to provide major insights into how to reduce private car use and addresses sustainable mobility objectives associated with CO2 …

Mediating mobility at the school gate: interpreting London's School Street schemes
… for School Streets being to increase active travel to school, evidence for their effectiveness in changing travel behaviour lags their widespread adoption. Responding to this gap, the research has two primary aims. First, to understand the contribution of School Streets to children’s mobility …

Transport and travel in a fragile rural tourist destination: a social representations perspective of residents' and visitors' mobility patterns.
… address the social assumptions that underlie travel behaviour decisions. When Moscovici's social representations theory is employed it suggests that we should develop and draw on shared perceptions, or theories, of the world around us in order to interpret our behaviour. Social representations …

An investigation of heterogeneous commuting mode choices through an Early Stopping Bayesian Data Assimilation approach
… the pandemic, a growing diversity of commuting behaviours existed among the population. Some of these behaviours may have served as trendsetters of commuting patterns that align with the emerging flexible working patterns, albeit not completely identical to those observed today. The challenge …
