20.500.12556/DKUM-92139 Pathways to Alternative Transport Mode Choices among University Students and Staff—Commuting to the University of Maribor since 2010 The study of commuting behavior at the University of Maribor (UM) was the subject of our research, which focused on the building complex of the four technical faculties (BCTF) and was based on the analysis of two questionnaire surveys (with 1057 and 462 respondents, respectively) and the transport policies implemented at the study site from 2010 to 2020. The research aimed to identify the factors influencing student and staff mode choice/shift over a decade period and to understand the weaknesses, strengths, and opportunities for improving sustainable mobility at the university. Since 2010, active commuting has predominated among students, while car use has decreased by 22%. Female students were 16% more likely to walk than their peers, while male students were 5% and 12% more likely to use bicycles and cars, respectively. Active commuting and car use by staff have not changed since 2010, and there was an insignificant difference between genders, 63% of whom used cars. Mode shifts were primarily related to trip origins, subsidization of bus use, availability or unavailability of free parking, and parking fees. Questionnaire responses were a powerful tool for finding the most effective interventions to manage transport at universities. The results also suggest that transport policies can be more effective if they are planned in coordination with housing policies. sustainable commuting travel behavior modal choice active transport effective interventions transport demand management university mobilnost trajnostni prevozi na delo potovalne navade modalna izbira aktivni transport učinkovite intervencije upravljanje transportnega povpraševanja visoko šolstvo true false true MDPI Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sustainability © 2022 by the authors Članek v reviji 2025-03-14 07:00:45 2025-03-14 07:00:46 2025-03-15 03:10:38 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 str. 1-19 iss. 18 (11336) Vol. 14 Sept. 2022 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2022-07-30 2022-09-06 2022-09-09 656:378 123774979 10.3390/su141811336 2071-1050 sustainability-14-11336-v2.pdf sustainability-14-11336-v2.pdf 1 78253B957ACB7913CA21E45041702B61 2c51fb6c9268bd43b7b5fe3c9e13644eb62848f5ffc2416984241bb57029f2a1 85a97a8f-009a-11f0-9c63-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=189347 https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/14/18/11336 0 8023b804-009a-11f0-9c63-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=189346 Fakulteta za gradbeništvo, prometno inženirstvo in arhitekturo 0 0 0
