Abstract (Swedish)
Kollektivtrafik är ett bra sätt för människor att resa mer socialt och miljövänligt. Det är därför viktigt att ha ett välfungerande system för kollektivtrafik. En stor del av det är att de pendlare som reser med tåg har en bra upplevelse. Om tågen är överdrivna med människor förlorar den sin konkurrenskraft med andra transportmedel som bilar. I denna rapport har undersökt hur andelen pendlare har förändrats under topptimme i Skånes regionala tågtrafik. Genom att undersöka proportionerna av ombordstigningspendlare för några utvalda stationer i Skåne mellan åren 2001 - 2015 har denna rapport dragit slutsatsen att proportionerna totalt sett har minskat under topptiden, även om fler pendlare reser med tåg. Under timmarna omkring topptimmen... (More)

Under timmarna omkring topptimmen verkar dock andelen av pendlare vara desamma. Rapporten drar också slutsatsen att antalet avgångar har ökat, medan andelen av avgångar under topptimmen har minskat och att avgångarna mer sprids ut över dagen. Spridningen av avgångar tillsammans med personer som har mer flexibla arbetstider verkar vara möjliga orsaker till att detta förändras i människors resetidsvanor. En mer in-depth analys av hur trängsel hos resenärer på tågen skulle vara till nytta för att förstå vad som kan göras för att öka andelen resenärer som väljer att använda kollektivtrafik i sin vardagliga pendling.

Abstract
Public transport is a great way for people to travel more socially and environmentally friendly. It is therefore important to have a well-functioning system for public transport. A large part of that is making sure the commuters whom travel by train has a good experience. If the trains are overstuffed with people, it loses its competitiveness with other means of transport such as cars. This report has investigated how the proportions of commuters has changed during peak hour in Skåne’s regional train traffic. By investigate the proportions of boarding commuters for a few selected stations in Skåne between the years 2001 – 2015, this report has concluded that the proportions overall have decreased during the peak hour, even though a greater...

This report has investigated how the proportions of commuters has changed during peak hour in Skåne’s regional train traffic. By investigate the proportions of boarding commuters for a few selected stations in Skåne between the years 2001 – 2015, this report has concluded that the proportions overall have decreased during the peak hour, even though a greater number of commuters are traveling by train. However, during the hours surrounding the peak hour, the proportions of commuters seems to be the same. The report also concludes that the number of departures has increased, while the proportions of departures during the peak hour has decreased and that the departures more are spread out over the day. The spread of departures together with people having more flexible workhours seems to be possible reasons this shift in peoples travel time habits. However, a more in dept analysis of how the congestion in travellers on the trains, would be of use to further understand what more can be done in increasing the percentage of travellers that choose to use public transport in their everyday commuting.
