It is not possible to get a direct measurement from the LTDS survey of the impact
of working from home on commuting demand. However, figure 11.19 shows the
trend in non-travel among those in full time or part time work over the 10-year
review period. Importantly, this graphic is based on a five-day working week. The
first observation is that around 1 in 10 people in work make no trips on any given
weekday. The second observation is that the rate of non-travel has steadily
increased for both full and part time workers over the ten-year review period.
