“…Certain types of regions (rural, city, small-town, suburban) may also be considered, given their distinctive socio-economic conditions, specic as to the level of and demand for spatial mobility. In this context, the studies by Pucher and Renne (2005) or Nutley (2005) state that the need for higher mobility is a characteristic feature of non-urban areas, as the people living in them are forced to satisfy their common everyday needs, as a rule, in towns and cities that are further away. Similarly increased demand for mobility is newly exhibited by the suburban areas where the people, in some cases, have to rely on services and other socio-economic activities located in the central towns.…”

This study focuses on one of the most important processes in our society: daily mobility. Its importance has grown over the last decades. From the geographical point of view, the growing level of mobility has a whole array of geographical causes and impacts.In the rst phase, the study analyses the main features of daily mobility in the Czech Republic based on ofcial statistics. In the second phase, it evaluates detailed daily mobility research in selected regions of the Czech Republic through case studies. The monitored regions were Písek and Bystrice nad Pernštejnem within their administrative regions. It brings new and original information about daily mobility, transport behaviour, modal split, average travel time, etc. and their differences evaluated by particular population groups (age, economic activity, gender, etc.) and by three main mobility measures. The study tries to ll a gap in the research of daily mobility and transport behaviour in the Czech Republic.

“…Becker and Gerike [76] have mentioned that actual accessibility measures, measure the opportunities that are actually reached-in contrast to potential accessibility, which measures the opportunities that could be reached. Different dimensional indicators have been used in the literature to measure participation in activities including count (e.g., number of trips, number of unique activity locations visited) [41,84,146,147], frequency of participation (e.g., number of trips per week or per day) [7,143,148], duration of participation (activity duration) [41,121,148], and types of opportunities participated in [41,148].…”

“…Using count-based measures, although the number of trips is frequently used as an indicator of participation in society [147], Schönfelder and Axhausen [84] have mentioned that much of the individuals trips are associated with one or few locations and can act only as a proxy measure. As a result, the number of unique activity locations visited by an individual has been used as an indicator Therefore, it appears that the operationalised examples of personal mobility-based measures using the concept of activity spaces overcome some of the identified weaknesses of the traditional mobility-based measures such as socioeconomic (e.g., male, female, disabled, and children) disaggregation, and spatio-temporal disaggregation of the availability/use of transport services.…”

Measures of Transport-Related Social Exclusion: A Critical Review of the Literature

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Quantitative measures of transport disadvantage are reviewed in this paper from the perspective of their effectiveness to investigate social exclusion. The effectiveness is assessed using criteria derived through a review of the concepts of transport disadvantage and social exclusion and their operationalisation. The specified criteria are related to issues of spatial (e.g., urban accessibility, and public transport accessibility), temporal (e.g., public transport availability, and facility opening hours), and social attributes of travel and activity participation (e.g., personal mobility, and disability). Four groups of transport disadvantage measures are identified and evaluated. These include deprivation-based measures, mobility-based measures, accessibility-based measures, and activity-based measures. The review suggests that although the first three categories of measures have traditionally been used to identify transport disadvantage, they do not satisfy issues surrounding activity participation-the key outcome of social exclusion. The activity space concept is a way in which these issues can be incorporated, as it is a measure of the outcomes of activity participation and their associated travel to that activity. Participation in an activity means that an individual has overcome the spatial, temporal and social barriers of travel for that activity. The research using the activity space concept has, however, inadequately identified individual travel and activity participation. This has been due to a separate application of a range of different indicators to assess activity space size. These indicators are by their nature multidimensional-e.g., area visited, distance travelled, and number of activity sites visited. Although each indicator represents a specific qualitative/quantitative aspect of travel and activity participation, researchers have treated these indicators in an isolated manner to identify transport disadvantage and consequently transport-related social exclusion. This paper identifies the weaknesses and strengths associated with these measures; and methods are directed to overcome the limitations.

“…Porter (2013) melihat adanya dampak layanan transportasi perdesaan di Africa yang didominasi oleh penggunaan kendaraan tidak bermotor terhadap peningkatan kesejahteraan masyarakat meskipun muncul kendala yang dihadapi sebagian masyarakat yang tidak memiliki akses ke layanan kendaraan bermotor atau angkutan umum. Sementara itu, perkembangan layanan transportasi perdesaan di negara-negara maju memunculkan 'car culture' (Nutley, 2005) dan berdampak pada berkembangnya eksklusi sosial (Halden, 2002) serta perubahan karakter pergerakan masyarakat. Dari fakta di atas, memunculkan pertanyaan "Bagaimanakah perkembangan layanan transportasi perdesaan di Indonesia, khususnya di wilayah berbukit dan bagaimana dampak perkembangan tersebut terhadap karakter layanan transportasi?…”

Transport services development generally indicates some development problems and transport troubles in ABSTRAKPerkembangan layanan transportasi dapat mengindikasikan berbagai permasalahan pembangunan pada umumnya dan permasalahan transportasi pada khususnya. Penelitian ini mengkaji perkembangan layanan transportasi perdesaan di kecamatan Kemalang, Kabupaten Klaten, Propinsi Jawa Tengah dengan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan penelitian Studi Kasus. Data primer diperoleh dari wawancara mendalam terhadap 26 informan serta didukung data sekunder dari survei instansional. Perkembangan layanan transportasi dikaji dalam tiga tahap perkembangan, yaitu sebelum tahun 1990, pada tahun 1990-2005 dan tahun 2005-2010. Selama tiga periode perkembangan tersebut terjadi perubahan penggunaan layanan transportasi yang dominan, yaitu dari layanan transportasi pribadi dengan kendaraan tidak bermotor berubah ke layanan transportasi umum bermotor dan berkembang menjadi layanan sepeda motor. Perkembangan tersebut memberikan perubahan positif pada karakter layanan transportasi, berupa peningkatan ketersediaan layanan, fleksibilitas, kemampuan mengatasi kendala alam yang bermuara pada peningkatan mobilitas masyarakat dan aksesibilitas wilayah.
