Abstract

Transport energy consumption has expanded rapidly resulted from changing in urban structure and increasing in car ownership, which had been effected with complex from policies such as land use regulation and transportation facilities consolidation as well as changing social condition such as population/economic growth. This paper attempts to reveal those reciprocal relations by some statistical models constructed from comparing 1975 to 1992 data of Utsunomiya Urban Area person trip survey. The models basically consist of four sub-models: relationship between workplaces and residence places, relationship between residence places and car ownership, relationship between car ownership and travel behavior, relationship between travel behavior and energy consumption.
