HOUSEHOLDS’ TRIP-CHAINING BEHAVIOUR: EVENING INTERVENING STOPS ACROSS RESIDENTIAL AREAS IN IBADAN, NIGERIA
Journal Title: Analele Universitatii din Oradea, Seria Geografie - Year 2018, Vol 28, Issue 2
Abstract
The study examined the stop-making behaviour of households during evening commute across residential zones in Ibadan, Nigeria. 1,794 commuting household heads were selected from 15 wards in the city. Significant relationships were established between evening intervening stops and most socioeconomic characteristics. Moreover, a significant relationship was found between residential zone and time added to evening commute, while distance added to evening commute varied across the three residential zones. Unlike most previous studies, the study came up with some important findings that are capable of enhancing our understanding of the trip-chaining behaviour of households with no access to private vehicles.
