Abstract

ABSTRACT The COVID-19 outbreak and associated measures taken had an enormous impact on society as well as a disruptive, but not necessarily negative, impact on mobility. The Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management received the most recent insights from the Dutch Mobility Panel (DMP) on a weekly basis. These insights were used to monitor the travel behaviour and to analyse changes in the behaviour of different groups and usage of modes of transport during COVID-19. The analysis shows an enormous decrease in travel at the beginning of the implementation of the so-called ‘intelligent’ lockdown and gradual increase again towards comparable levels as before this ‘intelligent lockdown, although the distribution over time, motives and used modes has changed. It becomes clear that not everyone needs to travel during peak hours and commuter travel is also not the main reason for the increase in car usage. Furthermore, cycling has shown to be an alternative option for travellers and public transport is hardly used anymore. If it is possible to sustain the lower level of car usage and integrate public transport as an important alternative for travel again, the COVID-19 impact on mobility could have a substantial remaining positive impact on mobility.

2019冠状病毒病疫情期间荷兰流动模式的变化

新冠肺炎疫情及其相关措施对社会产生了巨大影响，对流动产生了破坏性影响，但不一定是负面影响。基础设施和水资源管理部每周都会收到荷兰交通小组(DMP)的最新见解。这些见解被用于监测出行行为，并分析COVID-19期间不同群体的行为变化和交通方式的使用情况。分析显示，在实施所谓的“智能”封锁之初，旅行量大幅减少，然后逐渐增加，恢复到与“智能”封锁之前相当的水平，尽管随着时间的推移、动机和使用方式的分布发生了变化。很明显，不是每个人都需要在高峰时间出行，通勤出行也不是汽车使用量增加的主要原因。此外，骑自行车已被证明是旅行者的另一种选择，公共交通工具几乎不再使用。如果能够保持较低的汽车使用率，并再次将公共交通作为一种重要的出行方式，那么2019冠状病毒病对交通的影响可能会对交通产生实质性的积极影响。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
