Travel Demand
Travel demand refers to the desire and need for individuals to move from one location to another, often for purposes such as leisure, business, or education. It is influenced by various factors, including economic conditions, population growth, and the availability of transportation options. Understanding travel demand helps governments and businesses plan infrastructure and services effectively.
Factors affecting travel demand include seasonality, travel costs, and destination attractiveness. For instance, during holiday seasons, demand typically increases as people seek vacations. Additionally, advancements in technology and changes in work patterns, such as remote work, can also impact how and when people travel.
