This paper investigates the journey to work patterns in four regional local government areas (LGSs) in Victoria. It analyses the differences in journey to work patterns and travel methods between the regional areas as well as to metropolitan Melbourne.

This paper explores trends in journey to work activity across metropolitan Melbourne area by active transport (walking and cycling).

Taking regional growth into consideration, the purpose of this paper is to understand the relationship between regional areas and Melbourne. Journey to Work data in 2006 indicated that almost 11,000 work journeys to the Melbourne Statistical Division (MSD) were from the major regional LGAs of Ballarat, Greater Bendigo, Greater Geelong, and Latrobe.
