Subjectively experienced well-being has recently attracted increased attention in transport and mobility studies. However, these studies are still in their infancy and many of the multifarious links between travel behaviour and well-being are still under-examined; most studies only focus on one...

This paper documents an evaluation of the consequences of the Netherlands national physical planning policy for an individual's travel behaviour. Four components of this policy are considered: the concentrated decentralisation of the 1970s and 1980s; the strict compact-city policy of the 1980s...

<title>Abstract</title> The time--geographic concept of coupling constraints defining when and for how long persons have to be corporeally present at a given physical location can help transportation researchers to understand better how people combining employment and domestic responsibilities coordinate and...
