Özet:

Nowadays, the time spent in urban transportation varies from the point of view of urban physical space, depending on the development of land use and transportation infrastructure. From the individual point of view, the most important indicator of the difference in travel time can be considered as gender, age group, type of transport used, travel chain and travel purpose. Women and men of different age groups, traveling for different journeys, using different types of transportation, travels in different times. By ignoring these differences, local governments assume a similar level of urban mobility by assuming that each individual has a similar urban mobility, and they offer a certain level of public transport service with a priority for a male-dominated society. This negatively affects the daily mobility of women and restricts women's participation in urban life and the city's mobility. This study provides recommendations for the development of women-sensitive transport priorities, in particular for public transport systems and vehicles, which will guide urban policy makers, local authorities and those working in urban transport. The aim of this study is to examine the sample practices in the cities of Vienna, Berlin and Malmö, and to support the suggestions by evaluating the transportation behaviors of the women living in a metropolitan city with the data obtained from the household surveys conducted in 2013 in Ankara.
