Using 2018–2019 crash data, we applied one-way ANOVA to compare mean crash rates across arterial segments varying in access density and speed limits, alongside a negative binomial regression to model VRU crash frequency relative to access types such as signalized intersections and driveways. Our results identify a significant association between poor access management and increased crash frequency, with VRU crashes particularly sensitive to access density and the presence of signalized intersections. These findings highlight the critical need for evidence-based access management strategies that balance mobility and safety, informing urban planners and policymakers managing city expansions.

Through a series of thought experiments, we illustrate the non-ergodic properties of travel time. These experiments reveal a new perspective of an old adagio, “People value reliability” more so than transportation speed. We show that this statement does not necessarily stem from heuristics, biases, or idiosyncrasies but rather that it is a consequence of the environment and dynamic in which people make modal choices. Our approach could be a powerful tool for instilling behavioural change. We offer new insights into inducing modal shifts and improving urban mobility systems.

This study examines the trip chaining behavior of commuters in Dhaka, utilizing Latent Class Analysis (LCA) to categorize them based on their trip chaining and mode use characteristics. The analysis reveals four distinct commuter classes. Class 1 represents simple trip chain makers, traveling without additional stops between home and work, using motorized transport. They typically belong to middle- to high-income households with access to private vehicles. Class 2 is characterized by complex trip chain makers – individuals who combine work and non-work activities – primarily during the journey to home, utilizing motorized vehicles. Females and those from middle- to high-income households tend to fall into this group. Class 3 consists of simple trip chain makers who rely on public transit or non-motorized vehicles. These commuters are mainly low-income males without access to private vehicles. Finally, Class 4 represents complex trip chain makers using non-motorized transport and typically belong to middle-income households with no private vehicle access.

However, since 2018, local governments have increasingly prohibited their use under national regulatory directives, creating conflicts between safety regulation and mobility access. This qualitative study draws on semi-structured interviews with 15 elderly scooter users across three Shanghai districts to examine how older adults navigate these restrictions and why they persist in using prohibited vehicles. Thematic analysis identified three interconnected themes: informal mobility adoption driven by service gaps, affordability limits, and digital exclusion; adaptive strategies that allowed older adults to sustain essential travel while reducing enforcement risks; and a conditional approach to compliance, where independence was prioritized but willingness to follow rules was expressed if viable alternatives were provided. These findings highlight that prohibitions without alternatives limit older adults’ ability to meet essential needs such as medical care, caregiving, and community participation. Continued use of scooters reflects practical responses to gaps in transport provision rather than intentional disregard for regulation. Enforcement-led approaches overlook this reality. More flexible strategies, including subsidies for safer vehicles, community-based licensing programs, and designated operational areas, could balance safety with the need for independent mobility. By showing how older adults adapt when formal systems do not meet their needs, the study highlights the importance of regulatory frameworks that respond to these practical challenges instead of penalizing them, and points to the value of incorporating lived experience into the design of age-friendly transport policies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36621,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives","volume":"34 ","pages":"Article 101655"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145222768","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
