摘要:Results from travel demand research in many countries show that – on average –
women are less mobile and have different mobility patterns than men. Recent
longitudinal studies of gender specific travel demand reveal converging mobility
of males and females. Moreover, in some countries results show convergence
between cohort and gender specific travel demand: women and men display more and
more similar travel behaviour while older individuals today have higher mobility
demands than ever before. Do these developments hold also for Germany? Based on
socio-economic and demographic analysis of gender specific travel behaviour
using the German mobility survey data from 2002, we ask what individual travel
patterns can be expected for the future in the year 2025. We place emphasis on
the importance of educational attainment and labour force participation for the
assessment of future personal mobility.
