Influence Mechanism of Professional Women's Travel Behavior from a Household Perspective:A Comparison Between the Main Urban Area and Chenggong New Town in Kunming
The daily travel behavior of professional women changes with the division of household respon-sibilities and the built environment of their residential built environment.It is necessary to examine the in-fluence mechanisms of these factors from a household perspective.This paper focuses on 1,071 dual-in-come households in Kunming's main urban area and Chenggong New Town,comparing women's daily travel characteristics and constructing a binary logistic model to analyze the influencing factors and mecha-nisms of women's travel behavior.The results indicate that the built environment of the residential area and the division of household responsibilities directly affect women's travel behavior.Women's sensitivi-ty to the built environment of their residency in terms of car travel is significantly higher than that of men;the low density,low mix,and lack of comprehensive public transportation facilities in the new town's built environment lead to more passive choice of car travel for women.The division of household responsibili-ties greatly influences the type of women's travel chains,with 82%of women having complex travel chains in households with child pick-up and drop-off responsibilities.The paper therefore suggests that fu-ture spatial planning of new towns needs to consider the spatial-temporal demand of women's various trav-el destinations and provide corresponding infrastructure and public service facilities.
