Abstract
Ongoing research shows that accessibility influences the likelihood of use of services. Accessibility changes with different transport modes. Currently, these different transport modes, particularly cars but also bikes, can become a nuisance to neighbours of sport clubs. The main question that is asked is “How does spatial accessibility influence transport modal choice in recreational football clubs in Zwolle?”. With this question it is researched whether distance influences modal choice and what role perceptions play in modal choice. By using existing literature and a comprehensive statistical analysis based on mostly primary data, an answer to the main question is attempted to be formulated. Distance influences whether to walk, bike or drive to a sports club. A 15-minute time window as earlier found for a maximum walking distance is not found for biking. Furthermore, the ease to navigate walking, biking or driving influences the use of that transport mode. It can be said that infrastructure has an influence on transport mode choice.
