2021: The climate change mitigation impacts of active travel: Evidence from a longitudinal panel study in seven European cities

Nieuwenhuijsen

in Journal “Global Environmental Change“

Active travel (walking or cycling for transport) is considered the most sustainable and low carbon form of getting from A to B. For determining the net effects of changes in active travel on changes in mobility-related CO2 emissions, longitudinal data on daily travel behavior, journey purpose, as well as personal and geospatial characteristics were collected in seven European cities. Statistical modelling of longitudinal panel data was performed to assess how changes in active travel influenced changes in mobility-related lifecycle CO2 emissions; with the result that those changes have significant lifecycle carbon emissions benefits, even in European urban contexts with already high walking and cycling shares.

2021: Assessing the Policy Environment for Active Mobility in Cities—Development and Feasibility of the PASTA Cycling and Walking Policy Environment Score

in International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health

The importance of setting a policy focus on promoting cycling and walking as sustainable and healthy modes of transport is increasingly recognized. In this study a science-driven scoring system including six dimensions (cycling/walking culture, social acceptance, perception of traffic safety, advocacy, politics and urban planning) was developed to assess the policy environment for cycling and walking for seven European cities.

2021: When and why do people choose automated buses over conventional buses? Results of a context-dependent stated choice experiment

Jia Guoa; Yusak Susilo; Constantinos Antonioua; Anna Pernestålc

Erschienen in der Zeitschrift "Sustainable Cities and Society"

This study examines travellers’ preferences for automated buses compared to conventional buses, using a context-dependent stated choice experiment.
It examines the effects of context variables—such as trip purpose, distance to destination, time of day, weather conditions, and travel companion.

The results indicate that the influence of choice attributes does not vary much when choosing to use automated buses or choosing to use conventional buses. That is sad, the context variables matters on travel mode choice.

2021: The trade-off between virtual and physical activities during the first COVID-19 lockdown

Elisa Bin; Claudia Andruetto; Yusak Susilo & Anna Pernestål

Based on empirical data collected from Italy, Sweden, India and few more others, we found that the external restrictions and personal characteristics are the driving factors of the changes in ones' daily trips. However, the estimation results do not show a strong correlation between the countries' restriction policy and the respondents' likelihood to adopt the new and online-based behaviours for any of the activities after the restriction period.
