高鐵的營運啟用,象徵著國家的經濟運輸發展即將邁入另一個新紀元,它的高速特性縮短了南北往來之距離,造就了「一日生活圈」的新生活型態,而這樣快速又便利的交通工具是否有被利用在休閒旅遊上呢? 本研究旨在探討臺中市民眾選擇搭乘高鐵從事國內旅遊之意願及其影響因素,研究中發現,選擇搭乘高鐵從事國內旅遊意願者,在性別上,「男」「女」之間並無顯著差異;年齡上,隨著年齡的增加,搭乘高鐵從事國內旅遊意願隨之提升,「61歲以上」民眾,搭乘高鐵意願較為顯著;在婚姻狀況中,「已婚無子女」、「已婚有子女(最小子女年齡0-6歲)」及「已婚有子女(最小子女年齡7-12歲)」,搭乘高鐵從事國內旅遊意願較高;在教育程度方面,「高中/高職」與「專科/大學」搭乘意願較高;在職業部份,「學生」搭乘高鐵從事國內旅遊意願最高,其次是「其他職業」,第三則是「旅遊、餐飲、服務業」;在平均月收入部分,以收入「20001-40000元」的民眾搭乘高鐵從事國內旅遊意願最高。 最後,針對本研究結果提出幾點建議:一、透過高鐵、旅遊、飯店與遊樂業者異業結盟合作,創造更新的商機;二、整合市區公車路線,創造無縫接軌環境。
