A dramatic reduction in traffic demand has been observed during the COVID-19 pandemic,
producing noticeable declines in traffic delays, energy consumption, and emissions. This …

This paper examines the causal link between highway capacity and the volume of vehicle
travel in US urban areas. Estimates from a dynamic panel model suggest that highway …

This article presents nuanced and context-related empirical research on the traffic-inducing
effects of urban road capacity expansion two Norwegian cities. It focusses on the indirect …

Fostering sustainable cities necessitates a significant paradigm shift from motorised vehicles
to active mobility. However, the impact of emerging transport modes like e-scooters in this …

economic performance: Implications for project appraisal* Anthony J. Venables James Laird …

If we expand roadway capacity, more drivers will come, or so economic theory suggests and
a substantial body of empirical research now shows. Despite strong evidence, the “induced …

This paper reviews methods that seek to draw causal inference from non-experimental data
and shows how they can be applied to undertake ex-post evaluation of transport …

To support sustainable urban mobility strategies, reallocating road space from private
vehicles to other uses may be a relevant intervention. Novel empirical knowledge could …

Road network congestion; a traffic state characterised by slower speeds, longer trip times,
and increased vehicular queuing; is a major issue in most urban areas around the globe …

Causal inference with a continuous treatment is a relatively under-explored problem. In this
dissertation, we adopt the potential outcomes framework. Potential outcomes are responses …
