Document summary
This report aims to begin to address gaps in the evidence base on the travel
behaviour of people with disabilities, drawing on recent secondary analysis of five
key surveys. There are a number of limitations to the existing evidence base on the travel behaviour of people with disabilities. While there is a substantial body of knowledge regarding how their travel behaviour differs from that of people without disabilities, there is limited evidence on how this varies within the population of people with disabilities – by level and type of disability, by age, and by the interaction of these characteristics. Less is known about the factors that affect the travel behaviour of people with disabilities – particularly in terms of their attitudes, perceptions and the broader impacts of their travel behaviour on their daily lives. Meanwhile, little work has been undertaken to examine how the travel behaviours and experiences of people with disabilities vary by location and across the life-course – and whether patterns of change are similar or different to those for people without disabilities. This report seeks to address these three discrete gaps in the evidence.
