Transport for a Sustainable Future
Intrahousehold Commuting Behavior in a Nonmetropolitan Setting
Aspects of the Journey-to-Work Within a Small City Laborshed
A sample of the labor force of Blacksburg, Virginia, was surveyed to examine the relationship between worktrip length and household income within a small city laborshed and to ascertain the importance of commuting costs to the observed journey-to-work pattern. The results indicate that high income households are the most successful minimizers of worktrip length, in contrast to the typical metropolitan pattern. Patterns of home-work separation are…
Extended Commuting and the Intermetropolitan Periphery
Extended metropolitan commuting is commonly related to a decline of the intermetropolitan periphery. It is frequently postulated that this peripheral zone will continue to shrink, and even vanish, as metropolitan commuting fields push ever outward, aided by the construction of limited access highways. To study this phenomenon, the intermetropolitan periphery of Appalachian Ohio is examined in terms of the trends evident in extended commuting from…
