MULTI-MODAL Mondays: Examining Traveler Behavior

Delft University of Technology, in The Netherlands, is studying multi-modal travelers' behavior in Dutch cities, and while it's a little hard to read, it provides some insights into travel decision-making. Meanwhile, "EU-funded scientists are piloting a service that will allow people to determine the best way of making journeys in cities. As well as helping individuals find the most efficient route and travel mode, the systems should cut congestion and lower the environmental impacts of road transport, Green Car Congress reports.

The pilot cities are: Brno, Czech Republic; also, Bucharest, Florence, Oslo, Munich, Vienna.

If that's not enough, the city of Albuquerque, N. Mex., offers a Travel Training Program to help riders figure out how their entire transit system--ABQ Ride, Rio Metro and the New Mexico Rail Runner Express--works together.
