TIME USE AND TRAVEL BEHAVIOR IN SPACE AND TIME. IN: TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS PLANNING. METHODS AND APPLICATIONS
In recent years, the state-of-the-art in travel demand modeling has moved in the direction of developing and implementing activity-based models of travel demand that explicitly recognize the key role played by time and space in shaping activity and travel patterns of individuals. In the new planning context where travel demand management strategies and transportation control measures are inherently linked to time and space dimensions, activity-based approaches that capture the relationships between time use and travel behavior in space and time offer a stronger behavioral framework for conducting policy analyses and impact studies. This chapter aims to provide a general overview of the role of time use in analyzing travel behavior in space and time, and includes several specific examples that demonstrate how the explicit recognition of the notion of time can offer valuable insights into human activity and travel behavior.
