Overview
Background & policy context:
Daily life is the sequence of activities in which persons participate at specific times and places. The movement between the activities and locations is the traffic. The trips are therefore not independent, but form an interdependent chain, which is the result of an explicit time- and path choice. Current transport policy is directed at these choices through the provision of information, road pricing or changes in the time-space regime.
Objectives:
This study tries to answer the following important questions:
What is the state-of-the-art in activity based models?
How can Swiss practice profit from these models?
Which are then the primary research topics in this area for Switzerland?
