With a terabyte-level dataset, we introduce a holistic hurricane evacuation behavior algorithm: we infer evacuees’ departure time and categorize them into different behavioral groups, including self-, shadow, compliant (voluntary and mandatory), and partially-compliant evacuees. The landfall region (Fort Myers, Lee County) had less evacuees, who left the evacuation zone, but more partially-compliant evacuees, who left home but not the zone. Meanwhile, the predicted landfall region (Tampa, Hillsborough County) had the opposite, suggesting the effects of delayed orders. Evacuation rates increase from shore to inland. Spatiotemporal analysis identified three evacuation waves: during formation, before landfall, and after landfall. These insights are valuable for enhancing future disaster planning and management.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23277,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Part D-transport and Environment","volume":"139 ","pages":"Article 104559"},"PeriodicalIF":7.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143142815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The overarching goal of these programs was to encourage transportation practitioners to think more broadly about the relationship between transportation and equity through the introduction of creative practice. We evaluated these four programs as part of a larger study on arts and culture in transportation on behalf of the Minnesota DOT (TRB 2022). While formal evaluations might not have occurred for any of these residencies, it is nevertheless possible to consider them as more or less successful based on a) interviews with artists and agency representatives, and b) future actions the agencies are taking as an outcome of the residencies. We find the success of these programs correlates with the extent to which they incorporated epistemic justice in their steps towards transportation equity and mobility justice. In sum, the idea of epistemic justice, which has traditionally been applied in transportation studies to look at the state-community relationship, is also a useful tool when practiced in AiR programs when the aim is to change internal state practices.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23277,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Part D-transport and Environment","volume":"139 ","pages":"Article 104582"},"PeriodicalIF":7.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143142784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results show that the effect of PT accessibility on dwelling selection varies as the life course progresses. Families with children and older households display lower effects of PT accessibility on residential choice than young, childless households. At the same time, PT accessibility increases the likelihood of dwelling purchase more for high-income households than for households with a lower income.
