Current models of long-term mobility decisions assume that these decisions are static, neglecting:
- That they are the outcome of longer-term adaptive processes
- That decisions are driven by life-time utility rather than current utility
- The effect of social environment and households? aspiration levels
- The interdependency between decisions regarding residential and job location and car ownership.

This project seeks to extend the theory by developing an integrative modelling framework of long-term mobility decisions accounting for the above factors. Longitudinal data (both retrospective and prospective) and social network data will be used to estimate and validate the model.
