Attitudes Statements

Attitudes Statement 1.

In view of contemporary attitudes to time and speed, we can expect transport users to demand high levels of mobility and prioritise high-speed modes of transport.
Assuming that negative views of public transport prevail, this can be expected to contribute to a continuing increase of the motorisation rate.
Assuming a low degree of green technology development and uptake within the car industry, this will lead to an increase of negative environmental externalities despite the decrease of travel times out of higher-power motor vehicles.

Attitudes Statement 2.

In view of contemporary attitudes to time and speed, we can expect transport users to demand high levels of mobility and prioritise high-speed modes of transport.
Assuming that high-speed long-distance rail passenger transport stagnates, this will mean that people will favour road and air transport over long distances.

Attitudes Statement 3

The majority of Europeans think that environmental protection is a key policy priority.
Assuming that attitudes also translate into a change of behaviour, this can be expected to lead to the greater use of environmentally-friendly modes of transport and to increased pressure for the modernisation of public transport.
In the medium- to longer-term this will lead to less congestion on the roads, a modal shift towards more environmentally-friendly modes of transport and by consequence lower local (NOx) and CO2 emission levels

1. Do you agree that attitudes towards the environment influence behaviour hence also mobility patterns? (%)

3. Do you expect that increased public pressure for the modernisation of public transport will also be associated with greater willingness to pay? (%)
