Gloria Jean Jeff, Regina McElroy

Open publisher page 6 citations

Abstract

This paper presents the case for considering women's travel issues in transportation policy development. Examining women's travel requirements and patterns makes sense because women (1) are agents of change, (2) have different activities and travel requirements from men and (3) will account for significant increases in total future travel. Underscoring these reasons is the fact that women represent a large portion of the traveling public.
