This article aims to define sustainable mobility, particularly, reference travel time
recognition and its economic and cognitive impact with a particular focus on info-
communication. The paper focuses on the social surplus of mobility and its effect on
consumer time budget and cognitive recognition of sustainability. Nowadays, the added
value of mobility is unquestionable; meanwhile, the increasing amount of information causes
cognitive load. Travel time seems to be constant, and different mobility modes have different
(environment)mental loads. Therefore, a (environ)mental impact assessment is required.
An always-changing environment must lead to an analysis of the effects of rational decisions.
The work focused on travel time, as a decision parameter and its impact on (environ)mental
load and sustainability.
