When urban environments meet pedestrian's thoughts: Implications for Pedestrian Affect
This UK-based study explores the ways in which urban environments and pedestrians’ thoughts interact. Such interactions have implications for hedonic well-being and affect. Analysis of innovative interviews with pedestrians highlights different orientations of thought while walking in the urban environment: the pedestrian can ignore surroundings in order to reflect, solve problems, daydream or think creatively, although this process can be interr…
The 'digital glimpse' as imagining home
This paper proposes the concept of the ‘digital glimpse’, which develops the existing framing of imaginative travel. Here it articulates the experiences of mobile workers digitally connecting into family life and everyday rituals when physically absent with work. The recent embedding of digital communication technologies into personal relationships and family life is reconfiguring how absence is experienced and practiced by workers on the move, a…

An ideal journey: Making Bus Travel Desirable
This paper explores the ways in which people use their travel-time on local buses, and explains how this knowledge can assist with efforts in many ‘auto-centric’ societies to make bus travel more attractive and encourage a shift away from excessive private car use. Framing the discussion around the concept of an ‘ideal bus journey’, this paper examines whether travel-time activities on-board the bus give subjective value to the journey experience…
Transport Policy and Social Inclusion
‘Transport-related Social inclusion’ is a specific naming of the complex set of interrelationships within which accessibility plays an important role in whether a citizen achieves the level of participation in socioeconomic life that he or she seeks. It has its origins in the United Kingdom of the early 2000s, but the diversity of theoretical perspectives, research methods and practical focus shown by the contributions to the present issue on thi…

Business travellers' connections to home: ICT s supporting work‐life balance
This paper examines the role of information communication technology in enabling connections to home for work‐related travellers. Although digital connectivity for work‐related tasks are well researched, the use of digital technology for home communication is under‐researched. The study draws on a qualitative study of UK ‐based organisations and business travellers to explore how these travellers use ICT s for personal use while ‘on the move’. Th…

Comparing Rail Passengers' Travel Time Use in Great Britain Between 2004 and 2010
This paper provides a unique insight into aspects of stability and change regarding the travel time use of rail passengers in Great Britain between 2004 and 2010. Empirical evidence is presented on how rail passengers spend their time, how worthwhile they consider their time use to be, the extent of advance planning of their time use and how equipped for time use they are in terms of the items they have to hand when they travel. The results revea…

Grounded: Impacts of and Insights from the Volcanic Ash Cloud Disruption
This paper presents the preliminary findings of a survey of over 500 people whose travel was affected. Stranded passengers used various support networks and means of contact. While travel providers were most likely to be able to help, they were less contactable and willing to help than family, friends and employers causing the impacts to ripple through ‘home’ networks. The findings demonstrate how flying maintains dispersed networks but has ‘crea…

Understanding Business Travel Time and Its Place in the Working Day
This article argues that there is a need to understand business travel time in the context of the wider organization of work time. It considers why travel time use is potentially changing with the use of mobile technologies by the increasing number of individuals engaged in `knowledge work', and examines existing evidence that indicates that travel time use is part of a wider work-related `taskscape'. However, it not only considers material produ…

A Phoenix Called Resistance: Aesthetics vs Meaning
Locating resistance in the very act of writing, this article explores the intellectual’s role as an interrogator and the reader’s through the act of responsive reading, enabling a connection across the passage of time. It seeks to free resistance from the confines of postcolonial discourse and to place it in the interaction between the individual and contemporary socio‐political constructs. Analysis focuses on Girish Karnad’s Talé‐Danda, while Ra…

Turning the Car Inside Out: Transport, Equity and Environment
“Turning the car inside out” describes how the environmental damage and social exclusion inflicted by the car can only be seen from outside the car. It explains how car use has reshaped land, time use, social relations and economic patterns. It creates ever more pressures for increased car use, yet inevitably leaves the people temporarily or permanently excluded from cars having to negotiate car distances and times. The worst scenario of car satu…
