Abstract This paper investigates the determinants of commuter flexibility in changing routes and departure times for the morning trip to work. A sample of commuters in a congested metropolitan area is used to estimate Poisson regressions of how often commuters change routes and departure times per month. The estimation results provide valuable insight into the effects of traffic system and socioeconomic conditions on the frequency of route and departure time changes. The results also have significant implications for real-time traffic information systems and future research on the route and departure time choice decision-making process.
