N2  - Mode choice for the journey to and from work among a cross-section of workers in the formal sector of Accra (Ghana) is analysed using the multinomial logit (MNL) model. The evidence suggests that travel-to-work behaviour of employees in the sector is influenced mainly by perceived service quality of the commercial commuter vehicles as well as employees' personal circumstances rather than by conventional transport characteristics such as access, waiting or in-vehicle times. Gender roles, age differences, disposable incomes relative to travel costs as well as the reliability of schedules by the individual modes are the most important factors workers take into consideration in choosing their modes.<p />
