摘要: We examine the effects of urban form and public transit supply on commute mode choices annual vehicle miles traveled (VMTs) households living in 114 areas 1990. The probability driving to work is lower higher are population centrality rail supplied road density. Population centrality, jobs-housing balance, city shape, density have a significant effect household VMTs. Although individual elasticities small absolute values (≤0.10), moving sample from with characteristics Atlanta Boston reduces VMTs by 25%.
