Samenvatting

Influence of green space amenities in the residential environment on travel behaviour This study investigates whether the amount of green space close to the dwelling and in the residential environment influences the use of green space amenities elsewhere. Behavioural patterns in respect of trip frequency and modal choice are analysed in connection with detailed spatial data and controlled for socio-demographic variables. The greater the availability of gardens and public green space in the vicinity, the more residents use green space amenities. Whilst the availability of green space in the vicinity leads to use of green space amenities, it appears that a more urban residential environment does not lead to compensation behaviour. It is only very attractive parks which draw people from a wider catchment area. It also appears that the greater the distance to a park or natural area, the less people walk to it and the more they go by bicycle and, particularly, by car. Proximity to green space amenities therefore encourages people to visit them and to choose a sustainable means of travel. It is conceivable, however, that some of the people who do not live in a green neighbourhood but who would prefer to do 80 will move to a more suburban or rural residential environment.
