Research on Women’s Issues in
Transportation Conference
November 18-20, 2004
Chicago, Illinois
The Research on Women’s Issues in Transportation Conference reviewed
the state of the art in a variety of topics related to women’s travel patterns,
needs, and behavior. The Conference identified the additional research and data
needed to inform public and private policies that directly or indirectly address
women’s mobility, security, and safety concerns. The Conference focused on
data-driven comparative analyses of 1) men and women’s travel patterns or
safety or security risks currently and over time, 2) different sub-groups of
women, and 3) women internationally.
Four
presentations from that conference are included in this TRB e-Session.
The first two presentations contain the
slides synchronized with the corresponding audio. Slides will advance automatically.
To view the presentation, please click on the title. Click "View
