multiple times per day; this creates

Discussed Aspects
Socio-demographic
Characteristics of traveller
The groups who use the car more and public transport less than
others are:
The under 11s, the working age group (31 to 60 year olds), even
the 61 to 70 year olds
The workers as well as the unemployed or keeping house
Those with vehicles especially those in multi-vehicle households
Those in couple with children households
Those households with higher incomes
The groups who use public transport more than others are:
The 11 to 20 year olds
The students
Those with no licences
Those with no vehicles in the household
Trip Purpose
The private vehicle is the
most frequently used
mode for every trip
purpose but its share
varies in relation to public
transport depending on
the reason for travel.
Figure shows that car use
is highest for work-
related (89%) and serve
passenger trips (88%)
which by their very
nature are probably most
captive to this mode.
Public transport use, on
the other hand, is highest
for educational (27%) and
commute (20%) trips.
Time of Day
The distribution of travelers by
time of day shows that the
private vehicle is the most used
mode consistently throughout
the day. Train and bus use picks
up during the morning and late
afternoon peaks when congestion
puts the greatest pressure on
travel time and costs making the
car comparatively less attractive
during these periods. In
comparison during the midday
period when there are less
traffic pressures and public
transport services are not as
frequent, car use almost
completely dominates among the
motorised modes.
Time of Day
(continued)
Access and frequency of
public transport
Evidence from the study shows
that about a third who use the
private vehicle for their trip to
work do so because public
transport is inaccessible or
unavailable
Conclusions
For the public transport to be used
more, it must be made comfortable
and accessible
There must be a solid restrain on
ownership and use of private
vehicle
