Towards Mobility Turn in Urban Planning: Smart Travel Planning Based on Space-Time Behavior in Beijing, China
Abstract The current trend of mobility turn is calling for a paradigm shift in urban planning to address the increased mobilities of urban residents, which is especially important for urban China where the quality of life and well-beings of urban residents has been brought to the front of policy debate. The space-time behavior approach has become influential in China over the last two decades and has subsequently been widely applied to empirical research and planning practices. This research discussed on the framework and implementation of a smart travel planning project in a suburban new town of Beijing, China, from a space-time behavior approach. We illustrated some experiences of individual activity-travel data collection in the study area, in which GPS tracking technology had been integrated into a web-based activity-travel diary survey to collect data with high spatial and temporal resolution and with detailed activity-travel information. Moreover, we elaborated on some cases of space-time behavior analysis, as well as the practices of smart travel planning in the study area in terms of web-based real-time travel information services, and summarized the challenges and future prospect of smart travel planning in urban China.
