A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The study is a review of urban travel research undertaken since World War II. The description of the major origin and destination studies funded in large part by the Bureau of Public Records is followed by a section dealing with descriptive or aggregative models of travel behavior. These are dealt with in terms of three topics: (1) spatial and city size variations in urban travel, (2) time and trip purpose profiles, and (3) mode of travel. Section III turns to additional micro analyses of travel behavior and focuses upon the determinants of automobile ownership, trip generation, journey-to-work and residential location, and transit use and the choice of mode of travel.
