Abstract

This paper investigates socio-demographic characteristics in the origin and terminal vertices of the time-space prism, by using the stochastic frontier method for morning and evening full time workers in the metropolitan area of Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Observed trip starting and ending times are used as dependent variables, while trip distance and time, as well as spatial characteristics to distinguish among commuters are independent variables. The results discuss spatial and temporal patterns of the commuting trips in estimating the temporal vertices of time-space prisms in a former socialist, developing country context.
