Relocation of Work Place – Shifts in Travel Behaviour

This paper presents findings from a study of changes in travel behaviour, following the relocation of local public service offices from the periphery to the central business district (CBD) of the Norwegian city of Trondheim. This relocation gave improved public transport services and restrictions in parking facilities for employees and visitors, and resulted in significant changes in mode choice, with a shift from car to public transport as main characteristics.
