Public attitudes to transport: Knowledge review of existing evidence

http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/scienceresearch/social/evidence.pdf

 

The Department for Transport has published the findings of a review, carried out by the Centre for Transport & Society at the University of the West of England, of available evidence on public attitudes to passenger transport. It covers attitudes across travel modes and attitudes about transport policy goals. It uses two main sources: a set of national repeated cross-section surveys, and a selective literature review of journals, books and topic reports. Results are reported in two formats, first on a mode-by-mode basis and then relating to the five major policy goals of government namely competitiveness and productivity, climate change, health safety and security, quality of life, and equality of opportunity.
