Chained Trips in Montgomery County, Maryland

摘要

Increased participation ot women in the labor force and the suburbanization of households and jobs have all altered traditional home-to-work and work-to-home commuting patterns. With increasing time spent at work by women, less time is available to perform nonwork activities. Associated with increasing work force rates is rising mobility. Vehicle ownership in many areas has reached the level of almost one car per licensed driver.
