Habitual behaviour
Impulsive behaviour
Intuitive or habitual behaviour follows a perception of need straight into a pre-decided action – there is no evaluation involved and no decision has to be taken.
Most travel decisions (commute, shopping trips) are habitual
Types of decisions making (Weggemans, 2004)
Role of the road
Employee Presentation 3-00 - p 26
Role of the road

Employee Presentation 3-00 - p 27
Role of the road
Roads – public community spaces Movement corridors
(people, cycles, cars) Meeting places, Children's playgrounds Green spaces
Key contextual factor in changing travel habits
Employee Presentation 3-00 - p 28
