Abstract

This paper assesses inequalities in accessibility to non-mandatory activities (leisure and parks) using location-based and space–time accessibility measures. Most studies use location-based accessibility metrics, focus on mandatory activities (such as work or study), and are on the Global North. We present a comparative study with three location-based and two space–time accessibility metrics, which allows us to consider differences in time budgets and trip-chaining of individuals based on origin–destination mobility patterns data. The case study is a new monorail line in São Paulo, Brazil. The analysis revealed that, consistently across the accessibility and equity measures estimated, Line 15 contributes to increasing accessibility to leisure and parks in the districts neighboring the line, particularly for the lower-income groups. Furthermore, this paper clearly shows the relevance of the temporal dimension of accessibility. The case study illustrates that soft policies such as expanding the open hours of parks would result in higher gains in accessibility, especially for low-income groups. The methodology presented uses open data and open-source tools, thus contributing to an open-science perspective. In addition, the applied space–time accessibility measures enhanced the evaluation of inequalities, often underestimated by location-based measures.

使用基于位置和时空的无障碍指标对休闲无障碍和公平影响的比较分析
本文采用基于位置和时空的无障碍措施,评估了非强制性活动(休闲和公园)无障碍方面的不平等。大多数研究使用基于位置的无障碍度量标准,重点关注强制性活动(如工作或学习),并以全球北部地区为研究对象。我们采用三种基于位置的可达性指标和两种基于时空的可达性指标进行了比较研究,从而可以根据出发地-目的地的流动模式数据,考虑个人在时间预算和行程串联方面的差异。案例研究是巴西圣保罗的一条新单轨线路。分析表明,在所估算的可达性和公平性衡量标准中,15 号线始终有助于提高线路附近地区的休闲和公园可达性,尤其是对低收入群体而言。此外,本文还清楚地表明了无障碍环境时间维度的相关性。案例研究表明,扩大公园开放时间等软性政策将带来更高的可达性收益,尤其是对低收入群体而言。本文所介绍的方法使用了开放数据和开源工具,从而为开放科学视角做出了贡献。此外,所应用的时空无障碍措施加强了对不平等现象的评估,而基于位置的措施往往会低估这些不平等现象。

期刊介绍: Transportation Research: Part A contains papers of general interest in all passenger and freight transportation modes: policy analysis, formulation and evaluation; planning; interaction with the political, socioeconomic and physical environment; design, management and evaluation of transportation systems. Topics are approached from any discipline or perspective: economics, engineering, sociology, psychology, etc. Case studies, survey and expository papers are included, as are articles which contribute to unification of the field, or to an understanding of the comparative aspects of different systems. Papers which assess the scope for technological innovation within a social or political framework are also published. The journal is international, and places equal emphasis on the problems of industrialized and non-industrialized regions. Part A''s aims and scope are complementary to Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, Part C: Emerging Technologies and Part D: Transport and Environment. Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review. Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour. The complete set forms the most cohesive and comprehensive reference of current research in transportation science.
