Transport Choice Infrastructure Impact

The study identifies reliability, punctuality, and physical accessibility as the primary drivers of transport modal choice among Swedish residents, noting that transport cost is not necessarily a key factor. While most respondents share similar expectations regardless of sociodemographic group, some regional differences exist in how transport infrastructure is experienced.

• The primary factors influencing modal choice for the surveyed residents are reliability, punctuality, and physical accessibility, with mean scores of 5.53, 5.49, and 5.42 respectively on a 1 to 7 scale.
• Respondents generally share similar expectations for transport services across different sociodemographic groups, as differences in the rating of top modal choice drivers were often statistically non-significant.
• Transport cost is not identified as one of the key factors governing modal choice, suggesting that new infrastructure or policy interventions could make non-car transport modes more attractive.
