Abstract

There are many different ways of practicing coworking, and many different forms of CoWorking Spaces (CWSs). In this paper, we define CWSs in economic and spatial terms, and we provide some explanations on the transport mode used to travel to. Is the transport mode used to get to CWSs the same as that which is usually used for travel for work purposes? Does the spatial location of the CWS (in large city - medium-sized town - rural community) have an impact on the transport mode choice? The key issue is determining whether these new working spaces favor a shift in travel behavior toward practices less centered on the car. We use a survey of coworkers conducted in 2019 in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region (AURA), from which data is processed using a binomial logit model. The estimation results show that the mode choice for traveling to CWSs does not allow us to identify a characteristic that is fundamentally different from mode choice for work purpose. However, the availability of a parking place in CWSs is identified as a possible public policy level.
