Introduction
Travel and Activity are Two Sides of the Same Coin
Time in Travel = f (Time at Activity) Time at Activity = f (Life-Cycle, Money,
Space, Temporal Factors, Constraints) Activities Considered (Home, Work,
Shop, Other) Daily Activity Budget (24 hrs)
David Levinson 4
Data
1990/91 Nationwide Personal Transportation Survey
Survey Inverted to Get Activity Diary 21800 Households, 47000 individuals,
150000 Trips Individuals whose total activities did not
add to 1440 minutes, excluded This study looks only at adults (18-65)
David Levinson 5
Travel Duration
Travel Duration = f( Activity Duration & Frequency)
TDi = ß0 + ß1 * ADi + ß2 * AFi Transport Planning Models Only Consider
Activity Frequency, not Duration ADi positive & significant in 6 of 9 activity
categories, negative & significant for 1 of 9 (home) [ Staying Home is Substitute for Travel ]

Choice Model
Logit model to predict share of time between 4 activities (incl. travel to act.) for individuals who undertook all four
Greatest part of explanatory power is in Activity Specific Constant.
2nd most sig = activity frequency
David Levinson 29
David Levinson 30
Conclusions
Activity Duration a key factor explaining travel duration
Activities are substitutes Travel is complement only to like activity
& return trip Activity Duration is fairly constant
between groups, with large individual variations which are not easily predicted
