Characteristics of Weekend Activities in Greater Jakarta

Abstract

After fully occupied with working and other potentially stressful activities during the weekdays, people need to release the burden in themselves. Therefore, hypothetically the type of activities, time to conduct the activities, duration of the activities and the mode of vehicle used to reach the place of activities were different from the one in the weekdays. Whilst weekdays activities have been studied widely, weekend activities in Indonesia were rarely studied. Therefore, this current study was intended to reveal the characteristic of weekend activities and its implication to transport parameters such as mode choice, departure time, duration of activities, etc.
