TIME SPENT ON JOURNEYS IN THE GERMAN FEDERAL REPUBLIC

DER ZEITBEDARF FUER REISEN IN DER BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND

One of the most important factors influencing the choice of transport mode, is the time taken for the journey. To determine this time as exactly as possible, a record was kept of the different time elements in journeys by private car, by rail and by air, using speed measuring distances covered by car, by measuring time constants, by surveys among passengers, and by the study of existing documents and a geometrical analysis.
