TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper explored multi-modal public ridership and compared the similarities and differences of the associated factors, finding that road density, income, and metro accessibility do not have significant effects on metro, transit or bus ridership.

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of public transportation disruption on bicycle sharing mobility patterns in London was analyzed using data from more than 1 million bicycle trips from July 2015, and a complex network-theoretic approach was applied to uncover the impact on the connectivity of the bicycle sharing usage network.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply the potential accessibility indicator for Poland in order to verify the general productivity effects of major transport infrastructure investments between 2004 and 2014, and find that accessibility improvement seems to be weakly but positively correlated with growth in regional employment.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the different effects of weather conditions and temporal characteristics according to the characteristics of the stations at the station level analysis in addition to the system level analysis.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the effect of residential relocation on people's travel behavior and attitudes and found that travel attitudes often influence the residential location choice, and both travel attitudes and travel mode choice change after a relocation, albeit in different ways depending on the current (urban versus suburban) and previous residential neighbourhood (more/equally/less urbanised).

TL;DR: Possible accessibility impacts of fully automated vehicles (AVs) are explored and Q-method is applied among a sample of seventeen international accessibility experts to explore heterogeneity among experts with respect to the impacts of AVs on accessibility, and study different views and clusters of experts.

TL;DR: In this paper, the relation between commuting and subjective well-being by considering several cognitive (e.g., satisfaction with family life, leisure, income, work, health) and affective components of subjective wellbeing was analyzed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors test the hypothesis of transit-induced gentrification for the Regional Transportation District light rail system in Denver, CO. They use a quasi-experimental spatial econometric approach, the spatial difference-in-differences model, to measure the causal relationship between urban rail investments and gentrification.

TL;DR: This paper explored the development, site characteristics and regional location characteristics of Parcel Lockers in five South East Queensland (SEQ) cities, Australia, and discusses implications for urban and transport planning in a car-oriented city.

TL;DR: A systematic literature review was conducted to assess the extant literature from 1980 to 2017 on comparative studies between Arctic and traditional routes as mentioned in this paper, which aimed to provide an initial understanding on route choice decision-making factors and to contribute to the literature by providing suggestions for future research and methodological considerations.

TL;DR: In this paper, a benchmark analysis of HSR impacts on travel times, accessibility, economic productivity, and regional disparity in the context of China's current growth initiative centered at city-cluster regions is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a comprehensive summary of the role played by moto-taxi services in providing public transport options in sub-Saharan Africa and identify knowledge gaps that should be addressed by future research.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the correlation between demand for taxi, land use patterns, and accessibility to other modes using detailed GPS and GIS information collected from the Washington D.C. metropolitan area.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the spatial configurations of Chinese national urban system in both high-speed railway and airline networks and found that the configuration of urban systems in HSR networks differ largely from that of air networks when measured in terms of passenger flows.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an analytical framework to compare urban mobility patterns extracted from smart card transactions and taxi GPS trajectories to understand the relationships between different types of transport flows in the same geographic area.

TL;DR: A spatio-temporal optimization model is introduced to identify the optimal deployment strategies for BEB system that can minimize the cost associated with vehicle procurement and charging station allocation, while satisfying transit operation constraints such as maintaining existing bus operation routes and schedules.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a two-step floating catchment area model (2SFCA) to study the distribution of UGS accessibility across space and across population groups in a high-density city in Asia.

TL;DR: A novel approach to investigating and understanding the evolving structure of the Southeast Asian air transport network (SAAN) over the period 1979–2012 is presented, finding that the SAAN combines a relatively stable topological structure with a changing multilayered geographical structure.

TL;DR: In this article, the benefits and burdens of public transit service changes can be quantified using many different metrics, e.g., the ease with destinations can be reached, and the demographic shares of affected riders.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the introduction of a third index better distinguishes between balanced situations identified in the original node-place model, which is applied at a local scale, using Lisbon subway stations as the focus points of the analysis.

TL;DR: In this article, the first-ever analysis of cities in relation to maritime transport flows from a relational, or network, perspective is presented, which sheds new light about the interdependencies at stake between urban hierarchies and port hierarchies.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors measured the impact of high-speed rail (HSR) on urban expansion and found that HSR is almost twice as successful at promoting urban expansion in the underdeveloped central and western cities as in the developed eastern cities in China.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a fine-grained measure of accessibility to low-income jobs for vulnerable residents by public transport, specifically taking into account realized travel times by these vulnerable individuals.

TL;DR: The new estimated potential traveling population (EPTP) weighted travel costs are proposed to measure the overall accessibility at multiple scales and show that the EPTP is strongly correlated with the resident population at both the SUA and state levels in Australia.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured individuals' levels of exposure to air pollution (nitrogen dioxide - NO2) and road traffic noise according to their use of different modes of transportation.

TL;DR: A covering model is applied to assess how many bicycle stations are needed, and where they should be located, so no user would have to travel too far for access, and the set of stations is identified that provides the best access to the designated bike path network for the greatest number of potential users.

TL;DR: In this paper, a practical approach for estimating the coverage of transit service accessible by non-motorized modes (i.e., walking and bicycling) is presented in the Cincinnati metropolitan area.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that dominant routes are significantly longer than their shortest distance counterparts, suggesting that cyclists are willing to detour for routes characterized by positive features such as bicycle facilities and low traffic volumes.

TL;DR: The work in this paper was made possible by a grant provided by the ClimateXChange Centre of Scotland (CCCS) and the authors are indebted to the guidance of two anonymous reviewers.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the intersection between two streams of literature: port cities and port-centric logistics, and find that the majority of influencing factors are marginally in favour of siting distribution facilities inland rather than near the port.
