Based on both smartcard and household travel survey data, it is found that the theoretical minimum commute is considerably lower for bus users than for car users in Beijing, suggesting that there is a greater inter-mixing of jobs–housing functions associated with users of that mode.

A benchmark measure of the minimum required commute, conditional on the layout of the specific urban area, is developed through segmentation of the commuters into those that can be relocated and those that cannot.

This study examines the relationship between the commuting efficiency framework and spatial scale issues by implementing a suite of commuting metrics in the Boise, Idaho USA metropolitan area and shows that newer metrics developed post 2002 do not vary with scale, while those devised pre-2002 vary with Scale but do so in a predictable way.

A Monte Carlo approach is used to simulate individual resident workers and individual jobs within census tracts, estimate commute distance and time from journey-to-work trips, and define the optimal commute based on simulated individual locations.

46 Citations2011Tsutomu Suzuki, Sohee Lee
It is shown that excess commuting and capacity utilization are expressed by the imbalance and the spatial correlation of jobs–housing structure in a theoretical context, moreover it explicitly evaluates targeting US and Japanese/Korean cities.

The potential and limitations of extending the excess commuting framework and its associated methods to the analysis of non-work travel are examined and the notion of quasi-constrained behavior in Alonso’s theory of movement is touched on.
