The data used were collected in the National travel behavior study in Oslo 1990/91. In average the lengths of shopping trips are 5.6 km for men and 3.6 km for women. Men have fewer shopping per day than women. Women more often than men start their shopping trips at work. They more often than men combine different activities to the journey to work. More than half of the men use a care for shopping trips, only 29 per cent of women do so. Women are more often passengers than men are. 20 per cent of women's trips are done by public transport, while 8 per cent of men's shopping trips are done by this means of transport. People who live in the central parts of the city more often walk to the shops than people who live in other parts of the city do, also when controlled by gender, car ownership, and driving licence. |
