This document defines promoting sustainable transport use as the act of
implementing strategies aimed at shifting people’s attitudes and behaviors
in favor of sustainable transport as a transport mode for some (or all)
trips. Using this definition, this document focuses on a number of elements
that are key to understanding how to change attitudes and behaviors. For
more information on the specific aspects of attitudinal versus behavioral
change or the profile of bicycle users see (Gatersleben & Haddad, 2010),
and for an examination of the differences in personality, the psychological
experience of bike users as compared to other modes, or the reasons why
cars have characteristics akin to a power or status symbol see (Pardo,
2006).
