Social Statements

Social Statement 1

Changing household structures result in the decrease of the average household size.
This results in a lower car occupancy.
Assuming that
(b) the motorisation rate continues to increase and
(c) car-sharing schemes do not increase in significance,
we can expect the changing household structures to lead to higher traffic densities in urban and suburban environments

Social Statement 2

The flexibilisation of the labour markets and especially the increase of the share of telework can be expected to directly influence the transport system by reducing the demand for short-distance transport.

1. Do you agree that mobility is influenced by the flexibilisation of the labour market? (%)

Yes	91,1
No	8,9
N valid	45

2. Do you agreed that an increased share of telework will lead to a reduction of demand for short-distance transport? (%)

Social Statement 3

The reduction or increased flexibility of working hours can be expected to directly influence the transport system in that it will influence the temporal demand for short-distance (throughout the day).
As a result the phenomenon of peak-hour traffic as we today know it will weaken.

1. Do you agree that the demand for transport is influenced by amount of working hours? (%)

Yes	77,3
No	22,7
