The gap in term of mobility for disabled travelers in France
Résumé
The demographic and social changes that are currently taking place in the developed countries, such as the ageing of the population, the disappearance of local services and the increasing fragmentation of social and family networks are likely to affect the future travel practices of a great share of the population. Also the number of persons who find it difficult to move around without any assistance outside their home could increase. The objective of this paper is to assess travel practices among people with travel's difficulties. Our research is based on the 2007-08 French National Travel Survey (ENTD) with about 20,000 respondent households conducted by the Ministry in charge of transport and the French National Statistics Office (INSEE). Firstly the paper describes the travel practices of disabled travellers and gives the gap in term of number of trips for a typical day, travel budget time and daily distance travelled for these two segment of the population (people with and without difficulties). Secondly we will identify several sociodemographic characteristics that influence the number of trips per day and their travel behaviour, such as age, gender, professional occupation or residential zone.
