Description
Summary:In light of the renewed attention for time geography in the transport modelling field in recent years, this paper provides a timely state-of-the-art review of the contributions of the time-geographic approach to the closely related research areas of transport planning and accessibility analysis. Specific attention will be devoted to the ways in which recent advances in time geography have deepened the understanding of human activities and travel possibilities in space and time. From this literature review, a detailed research agenda is derived and the latest research attempts to deal with lingering time-geographic issues are discussed.
