Urban sprawl and increasing population density in urban centers create the challenge to
finding ways of sustainable transportation solutions that preserve the convenience of …

ABSTRACT A shift from private motorised transport to more active transportation can, among
other things, deliver significant health benefits. The main disadvantage of active transport (in …

This paper contributes to the scarce empirical knowledge concerning distances and
durations of walking trips to public transport in smaller cities and in European cities. Results …

The first and last mile (FLM) of transit trips are associated with physical activity, often placing
a burden on transit users. FLMs that are short, safe, and convenient to walk could facilitate …

This study examines whether the medium-term impact of rail transit on development near the
transit stations differs if it is built in areas which are largely undeveloped (greenfield sites) as …

Asian cities are unique, where people may need more than just walking; however, the
walkability research in a local context has received less attention. This paper analyses the …

This paper aims to pursue and to strengthen a paradigm shift in transport. It offers a fresh
perspective on how the vehicle-oriented paradigm has been translated into specific biased …

The acceptable walking distance (AWD) to public transit is a key design input for transit-
oriented development. However, standard guidelines for determining the AWD may not be …

The aim of this study was to exmine the influence of combined urban form and land use on
the vibrancy in urban areas within a geographical boundary for walkers. A geographical …

Transit oriented development (TOD) is a land-use and transport integrated urban planning
strategy that is highly acclaimed for promoting sustainable city development. This review …
