Abstract

Free-floating bike-sharing systems (FFBS), known for their convenience and low-carbon benefits, have become crucial for advancing green urban mobility and sustainable development. However, the specific impacts of urban greening structures on FFBS usage remain underexplored. This study focuses on Shenzhen’s core area, systematically evaluating the effects of greening structures on FFBS usage at different times by integrating street view images, remote sensing data, and interpretable machine learning models. Results indicate that daytime cycling is mainly influenced by trip purposes and urban morphology, while nighttime cycling depends more heavily on urban greening structures. Among greening factors, tree view index exhibits the most substantial nonlinear impact on cycling across all time periods. Factors like the bush view index, vegetation configuration ratios, and green space shape characteristics are more influential at nighttime. This study highlights the crucial role of location-specific greening optimization strategies in promoting sustainable green transportation development.

期刊介绍： Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment focuses on original research exploring the environmental impacts of transportation, policy responses to these impacts, and their implications for transportation system design, planning, and management. The journal comprehensively covers the interaction between transportation and the environment, ranging from local effects on specific geographical areas to global implications such as natural resource depletion and atmospheric pollution. We welcome research papers across all transportation modes, including maritime, air, and land transportation, assessing their environmental impacts broadly. Papers addressing both mobile aspects and transportation infrastructure are considered. The journal prioritizes empirical findings and policy responses of regulatory, planning, technical, or fiscal nature. Articles are policy-driven, accessible, and applicable to readers from diverse disciplines, emphasizing relevance and practicality. We encourage interdisciplinary submissions and welcome contributions from economically developing and advanced countries alike, reflecting our international orientation.
