Abstract

It seems that the COVID-19 pandemic, which started in December 2019, will have longer and more profound consequences on our lives than initially foreseen. Among the most obvious are everyday decisions about the mode of transport. From related research, it can be seen that the most affected transport mode is public transport, which had the greatest decline. The reason for lesser use of public transport is in complete closure of public transport in some parts of the world. However, where this measure has not been applied, the reason for the reduction is people's fear of infection when using public transport or any shared modes of transportation. The fear stems from the fact that the COVID-19 virus is spreading extremely fast in densely populated rooms. All these changes are affecting the changes in city mobility. Related research shows a decrease of mobility in general and an increase in the use of individual modes of transportation. Distinct changes can be observed in different environments as compared to previous travel behaviour.

基于交通模拟的新冠肺炎大流行期间城市交通变化分析

2019年12月开始的2019冠状病毒病大流行似乎将对我们的生活产生比最初预计的更长、更深远的影响。其中最明显的是关于交通方式的日常决定。从相关研究可以看出，受影响最大的交通方式是公共交通，降幅最大。使用公共交通工具较少的原因是世界上一些地方完全关闭了公共交通工具。然而，在没有采取这一措施的地方，减少的原因是人们在使用公共交通工具或任何共享交通工具时害怕感染。这种恐惧源于COVID-19病毒在人口密集的房间里传播速度极快。所有这些变化都影响着城市流动性的变化。相关研究表明，流动性总体上有所下降，而个人运输方式的使用有所增加。与以前的旅行行为相比，在不同的环境中可以观察到明显的变化。
