Abstract
This text compares mobility behaviours of the Belgian according to the urbanisation level of their place of residence. This urbanisation level is based on a morphological criterion: continuity of built up areas. Micro data of the 1999 Belgian national household travel survey make it possible to compare daily mobility behaviours. Travel demand, daily activity patterns, either their structured by work or not, appear remarkably uniform. Urbanisation level in the Belgian territory does favour certain means of transport, it influences travelled distances, but has very little impact on travel times.
