Journal of Planning Education and ResearchSummary: Existing studies on the built environment (BE)–travel connection tend to underestimate the potential of BE-based mobility strategies due to these studies’ limitations in conceptual and analytical frames. This study conceptualized the combined direct and indirect effects of BE on travel as contextual effects around three features of BE: multiplicity, interaction, and scalability. The conceptual framework was operationalized through multilevel modeling. The empirical analysis from Austin, Texas, verified the multiplicity of BE as it affected VMT, confirmed the complementary effects of BE and residential self-selection on VMT, and demonstrated practical procedures to deal with the analytical challenges of BE scalability.
