Abstract

Mostly, transport studies are centered on the factors of transportation rather than human movements. In a similar vein, communication technology revolution influence to people mobility. The performance of traffic pattern does not tend to deliver utmost needs of people mobility, because less attention of the substance of inhabitant movements. The importance of bionomic patterns of road users is based on the fact that behavior approach and adaptation will create pattern of people mobility. The aim of this research is to determine whether they adapt to nearby environment or not. Taking this, variables surveyed are individual attribute, time, duration, location, vehicle, communication to transport and purpose of trips. Investigation is conducted by providing questionnaire. The main result of this study are that the bionomic pattern of road users of selected population shows that they prefer to use simple mode vehicle to transport such as motor bike and walking. Moreover, these choices are preferred to be taken as a response to higher dense of traffic population and worsen road network system. It would be wise for planning if it considers potential effect not only to traffic but also regular road users need including goods supply, proper access and facilities for unmotorized vehicle.

Highlights

  • Mobility has been facing new challenges even when most of cities are still growing and technology is surely rounding into rapid-continuous advancement [1], [2], [3]

  • Albeit the slogan of reducing energy consumption and pollution has declared in many countries by generating sustainable transport, the quality of mobility of persons or groups in road networks of towns is obviously far from environmentally sound [5]

  • Again, most of transport studies are focused on the elements of transportation rather than “something” substance that create human movements such as traffic [6], city planning [7] and computer modelling [8], [9], [10]

Summary

Introduction

Mobility has been facing new challenges even when most of cities are still growing and technology is surely rounding into rapid-continuous advancement [1], [2], [3]. Albeit the slogan of reducing energy consumption and pollution has declared in many countries by generating sustainable transport, the quality of mobility of persons or groups in road networks of towns is obviously far from environmentally sound [5]. Global development in communication technology obviously gives a new role to people mobility [11], [12], [13], [14] Since this transformation has produced mobility which is more casual and faster [15].
