THE TEMPORAL DISTRIBUTION OF TRAVEL IN ADELAIDE

The paper reports on some work recently undertaken by the author on the temporal distribution of travel demand in Adelaide for various trip purposes and modes of transport. The analysis focussed on home based trips by all modes of transport and it used the data base produced during the 1977 metropolitan Adelaide data base study. The objective of the analysis was to determine whether a prima facie case existed for the introduction of policies which could be used to influence the temporal distribution of travel demand, particularly during the morning and evening peak periods. The paper presents the results of the analysis and the conclusions reached. (Author/TRRL)
