Walkability assessment for urban areas around railway stations along the Rhine-Alpine Corridor
Young social milieus and multimodality: Interrelations of Travel Behaviours and Psychographic Characteristics
In many countries of the global North, since the 2010s, there have been discussions about young adults turning away from the tendency exclusively to use cars and moving towards more multimodal behaviours, i.e. the flexible use of several transport modes. A more differentiated perspective on the young generation based on the sociostructural criteria of social milieus is presented in this paper with an empirically founded dataset from the city of D…
What about the people? Developing measures of perceived accessibility from case studies in Germany and the UK
As a primary objective in transport planning urban neighbourhood accessibility plays an essential role in the sustainable transformation of cities and their infrastructure. In most studies, accessibility is objectively measured using aggregate travel time or generalised costs as an indicator of the separation of people from places. However, this approach does not reflect perceptions of residents, which ultimately shape mobility decisions and repr…
Assessing the accessibility of urban nodes: The case of TEN-T railway stations in Europe
This paper introduces a methodology for assessing urban accessibility to and from railway stations along TEN-T Core Network Corridors, which was developed within the framework of an EU CEF funded project “RAISE-IT” with the aim to offer a simplified but effective way for evaluating the accessibility. The methodology was created in a practical way following the needs of the project partners (i.e. regional and local authorities) that face concrete …
Exploring immigrants travel behaviour: Empirical findings from Offenbach am Main, Germany
This paper focuses on the everyday travel behaviour of immigrants in Germany. We use data from an empirical study conducted in Offenbach am Main, a city with one of the highest immigrant populations in Germany. We compared the travel behaviour of immigrants and their direct offspring to that of Germans without an immigration background. Compared to non-immigrants, immigrants own fewer cars or bicycles per household, and they were also less likely…
