Abstract

Growing interest in the amount of time people spend travelling per day, rather than the number of trips they make, has encouraged more precise coding of the start and finish times of trips and of the origins and destinations recorded in travel surveys, thus allowing an examination to be made of how daily travel time varies with other travel characteristics, particularly travel speed.
