Public transport investments, commuting and gentrification : evidence from Copenhagen

Mulalic, Ismir; Rouwendal, Jan - 2022

This paper considers the impact of the introduction of a metro network in the Copenhagen metropolitan area. Using travel surveys from years before and after the opening of the metro network, we observe a significant change in travel times, speeds and mode choice for commutes that can completely...

Commuting, children and the gender wage gap

Borghorst, Malte; Mulalic, Ismir; Ommeren, Jos van - 2021

Denmark and show that gender differences regarding commuting play an important role in explaining this. We offer 3 pieces of … evidence. First, the gender pay and commuting gaps come into existence at the same moment: when the first child is born. Second …, wage compensation for commuting is lower for women after the birth compared to men: about 3 − 4 percentage points of the …

Biking and walking : the position of non-motorised transport modes in transport systems

Rietveld, Piet - 2001

Long run developments such as income growth and urban sprawl lead one to expect a continuous decline of thecontribution of non-motorised transport modes to the performance of transport systems. In terms of the totalnumber of trips, non-motorised transport modes have retained high shares,...

Productivity effects of an exogenous improvement in transport infrastructure : accessibility and the Great Belt Bridge

De Borger, Bruno L.; Mulalic, Ismir; Rouwendal, Jan - 2019

Most studies of the effects of transport infrastructure on the performance of individual firms have focused on marginal expansions of the rail or highway network over time. In this paper, we study the short-run effects of a large discrete shock in the quality of transport infrastructure, viz....

Valuation of travel time and travelIer information

Rietveld, Piet - 2003

The value of travel time plays an important role in cost benefit analysis of infrastructureprojects. However, the issue of uncertainty on travel times and the implications this has forestimations of travel time values has received much less attention in the literature. In thispaper we compare...

Second-best pricing for imperfect substitutes in urban networks

Rouwendal, Jan; Verhoef, Erik T. - 2003

This paper considers second-best pricing as it arises through incomplete coverage of full networks. The main principles are first reviewed by considering the classic two-route problem and some extensions that have been studied more recently. In most of these studies the competing routes are...
