The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of different measures on car use at the TU Delft. Therefore a stated-choice experiment is executed, including binary choice situations between the car and public transport or the bicycle. As a result, models describing the influence of different measures on people’s travel mode choice are estimated. It is found that parking fees are most important with respect to reducing car use, but that the acceptability is low. Public transport reimbursements, extra and improved bicycle routes, a tram line at the campus, higher sprinter frequencies, a purchase incentive for E-bikes and increasing walking times will help to stimulate people to make more use of sustainable transport, but are not expected to cause a mode shift individually. When no parking fees are introduced, car-mobility is not expected to become reduced at all.
