  • 澳大利亚维州“超长待机通勤者”增多

      据澳洲网报道,近年来,澳大利亚维多利亚州出现了越来越多的“超长待机通勤者”。许多人为了自己喜爱的工作,选择了离家较远的工作地点,却因此背负了通勤之苦。   最长单程通勤长达5个半小时   据报道,据美国人口普查局定义,“超长待机通勤者”,也就是“极端通勤者”指的是在上班单程路上花费的时间超过90分钟的通勤者,家住维州的麦克纳马拉(Tony McNamara)就很符合这一定义。   麦克纳马拉住在维州的托基(Torquay),而其工作地点在墨尔本CBD附近,现在他每天花费在单程通勤上的时间约2两个小时。但相比较之前在普雷斯顿(Preston)担任IT经理时候的通勤时间,现在的工作已经好了很多。   作为两个孩子的父亲,麦克纳马拉表示:“如果情况较为理想的话,单程大约耗时2小时。有些时候为了躲避拥堵的交通,我不得不在早上4点30分起床。最严重的一次,单程耗时约5个半小时。”   每天4小时通勤成维州人常态   如同麦克纳马拉一样,每天共计4个小时的通勤时间已经成为了城市中上班族的常态。最近一次人口普查数据显示,在墨尔本工作的人数在2011年上升了1.9万人。   墨尔本皇家理工大学(..
