Roger Vickerman, Tim Barmby

Open publisher page 24 citations

Abstract

The authors analyse the relationship between shopping expenditure and shopping trips. The theoretical considerations of the model used are outlined together with the empirical evidence of the structure of shopping behaviour. It was found that income has little effect on trip making, but that accessibility and the cost of travel are important factors. (TRRL)
