Accessibility
Assumptions:
• Greater impact of larger centres than smaller ones
• Diminishing importance of more distantly located destinations
• The potential of opportunities for interaction Hansen (1959)
The extent to which land use
and transport systems enable (groups of)
individuals or goods
to reach activities (or destinations)
by means of (a) transport mode(s) at
various times of the day

Challenges for urban areas:
• sustainable development
• improvement of the quality of life
• reduction of transport-related air
and noise pollution
• social and spatial inequalities

Comments:
• No areas (TAZ) with PT > Car
• Only 0.7% OD pairs with average travel speed by public
transport faster than by car (only short distances)
• Enourmous difference: Car >> PT
• Best vs worst case scenarios: more important for PT than Car

• not only peripheries
• mosaic distribution
Travel time variability:

Conclusions
• Comparative approach: to identify accessibility constraints.
• Intermodal imbalance (Car >> Public transport).
• Public transport users: more vulnerable to temporal dimension.
• Congestion: problem limited to the core city area.
• Instability of travel time (public transport): limited to peripheries.
• Public transport: not only the problem of peripheries
-> random distribution.
