Samenvatting
Social and cultural developments and the growth of mobility. As a result of social and cultural developments people tend to participate in traffic more often. Smaller living units, a more equal allocation of paid work between men and women, more people combining paid employment and household tasks and the intensification of leisure time, have resulted in a growth of mobility. This paper offers an overview of relevant social and cultural developments, examines the impact they have had on the growth of mobility since the end of the 1970s, and gives some implications for the temporal concentration of traffic during morning and evening rush hour.
