Changing behaviour towards a more sustainable
transport system

• Objective
• to analyse the conditions under which the process
  of growing unsustainable transport demand could
  be reversed, by changing travellers, shippers
  and carriers behaviours

• Participation in the original proposal 10
  countries, 19 Institutes
• Now 22 countries, 45 Institutes

Concluding remarks

• Interest for Cost355 in scientific community
• High diversity of approaches
• High number of scientific questions
• Relative low number of key variables
• Energy, distance, time, passengers, tonnes,
  trips, modal choice, vehicle type, costs, speed,
  load factor
• Very high number of variables in personal and
  freight travel surveys (up to 1000)
• Concepts, solutions, policies are often not a
  conclusion, but a main topic of investigation
