Travel behavior surveys are essential for a fact based transport policy. But they suffer notoriously from unreported trips. Depending on the mode of transport the amount of underreported trips is estimated in the range up to 40%. An exact determination of underreporting is difficult, because the "underlying truth" is generally latent. One solution...
This article reports on a case study in the city of Vienna that investigated the influence of redesigning the infrastructure surrounding an elementary school on students' mobility behavior. The redesign mainly comprised construction and traffic organization measures. The evaluation is based on before-and-after surveys among parents. The results sho...

Studies show decreasing psychomotor skills of children. These deficits also express themselves as deterioration of bicycle handling capabilities. In addition, children are increasingly driven by car and, subsequently, not adequately prepared for participation in road traffic. With regard to health aspects, these developments are heading in the wron...
In line with global trends of declining physical activity and growing obesity, children's school travel nowadays is often characterized by being driven to school instead of walking and cycling. In order to counter these trends one needs to understand children's travel behavior and mobility needs. In that regard, one underexplored task is if and how...
