Changes to commute mode: The role of life events, spatial context and environmental attitude (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 The Authors. It has been suggested that commuting behaviours become habitual and that changes to commute mode are more likely at the time of major life events. However, evidence to support this has so far been limited to analyses of small-scal... Read More about Changes to commute mode: The role of life events, spatial context and environmental attitude.

The EVIDENCE project: Measure no.18 - New models of car use (2016)
Journal Article

This paper is taken from the findings of the EU Evidence project. This project provides evidence that sustainable transport interventions and spending have as much to contribute to wider societal goals and strongly positive Benefit Cost Analysis resu...

The facts are clear – life events change travel behaviour. Policy-makers please take note (2015)
Journal Article

Understanding changing travel behaviour over the life course: Contributions from biographical research (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Life course approaches to travel behaviour, often labelled as mobility biographies, have emerged as a fruitful and promising research field over the past decade. They understand travel behaviour in the context of individual life courses and their pha...

The same mode again? An exploration of mode choice variability in Great Britain using the National Travel Survey (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 The Authors. The main focus of travel behaviour research has been explaining differences in behaviour between individuals (interpersonal variability) with less emphasis given to the variability of behaviour within individuals (intrapersonal va...

Towards a theory of the dynamics of household car ownership: Insights from a mobility biographies approach (2015)
Book Chapter

Household car ownership has arguably been one of the most widely studied areas within the field of transport research. Recently, studies in this area have moved to a focus on understanding the dynamic (time varying) nature of household car ownership....

Changes in level of household car ownership: The role of life events and spatial context (2015)
Journal Article

Recent longitudinal studies of household car ownership have examined factors associated with increases and decreases in car ownership level. The contribution of this panel data analysis is to identify the predictors of different types of car ownershi...

Urban walking experience, understood as relationships between the pedestrian's inner world, the city they experience and their physical movement of walking (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

There is growing interest in walking and how it can be encouraged due to its potential to ameliorate public health, environmental and congestion issues and the economic benefits attendant on this. However there is little research about the experience...

Understanding change and continuity in walking and cycling over the life course: A first look at gender and cohort differences (2015)
Book Chapter

Research of walking and cycling is dominated by approaches oriented to explanations of behavioural outcomes as a function of contemporaneous circumstances. The lack of a long term temporal perspective precludes understanding of behaviour as an outcom...

An exploration of the importance of social influence in the decision to start bicycling in England (2014)
Journal Article

© 2014 Elsevier Ltd. The purpose of this paper is to gain a better understanding, through qualitative exploration, of the ways in which social influence affects the decision to start bicycling in England. 'Social influence' is defined as the process... Read More about An exploration of the importance of social influence in the decision to start bicycling in England.

A biographical approach to studying individual change and continuity in walking and cycling over the life course (2014)
Journal Article

Most research studies seeking to understand walking and cycling behaviours have used cross-sectional data to explain inter-individual differences at a particular point in time. Investigations of individual walking and cycling over time are limited, d...

Examining the relationship between life transitions and travel behaviour change: New insights from the UK household longitudinal study (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Recent research has indicated that changes in travel behaviour are more likely at the time of major life events. However, there remains much to learn about the extent to which different life events trigger behavioural change and the conditions under...

Qualitative insights into the effect on travel behavior of joining a carshare (2013)
Journal Article

Carsharing organizations (carshares) provide collectively available vehicles that can be booked for exclusive use on a pay-as-you-go basis. Previous research has shown that two groups join carshares: (a) accessors, who do not have a car when they joi...

Triggers for changes in cycling: The role of life events and modifications to the external environment (2013)
Journal Article

There is surprising little research that directly investigates the reasons why people change their cycling behaviour. This paper presents findings from in-depth interviews that sought to understand the circumstances and factors that influenced people...

Online information-sharing: A qualitative analysis of community, trust and social influence amongst commuter cyclists in the UK (2013)
Journal Article

Research into the use and behavioural effects of travel information has concentrated on top-down information from transport providers, but little is known about the role of informal information, shared through word-of-mouth, in everyday travel behavi...
