Our results demonstrate that even at very detailed spatial levels (e.g., building block level), prediction models possess significant predictive power. However, the predictive performance is largely determined by the metric that is used to measure demand. We compare the predictions with a unique dataset of georeferenced citizen’s requests for charging stations, which demonstrates the limitations of solely using observed charging data to predict charging demand.

The approach combines direct measurement of electric locomotive consumption in Austria, Germany, and the Czech Republic with operational data from road freight transport. Specific energy consumption, CO₂ emissions, and transport performance are evaluated and compared using real transport flows in the Czech Republic. The results confirm that shifting 9.75 % of freight from road to rail can reduce energy consumption by 85.3 % and emissions by 75.7 %, equivalent to annual savings of 212 million kWh and 59,000 tonnes of CO₂. Although the case study focuses on the Czech Republic, the proposed methodology is also applicable to other Central European countries with similar transport flows, energy mixes, and infrastructure.

With the implementation of lockdown measures to curb the spread of the virus in the spring of 2020, there was a rapid shift toward remote and hybrid work – even in industries and occupations where such practices had been rare. In the booming post-pandemic labor market, many workers have been able to push back on employer return-to-office mandates, as many now prefer hybrid over fully in-office work. With all of this post-pandemic flux, which workers are seeing enduring shifts in their work and commute patterns, and which are not? We examine this question by analyzing 2022 data from the U.S. National Household Travel Survey. While a broad cross-section of the workforce moved home during the early months of the pandemic, we find that post-pandemic remote and hybrid workers look a lot like those who worked away from work pre-pandemic. Such workers are more likely to ride public transit when they do commute; live in households with fewer cars than adults; have disabilities; have higher levels of education; and live in urban (rather than suburban or rural) areas. Meanwhile, Asian or Latino/a workers and those with children in the household are less likely to report permanent reductions in post-pandemic commuting. So while over half of all workers shifted home during the depths of the pandemic, the roughly quarter of the workforce that continues to work remotely, at least part-time, is remarkably similar to the five or so percent of those who worked remotely pre-pandemic.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36621,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives","volume":"34 ","pages":"Article 101595"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145222766","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}

However, the numbers of suicides have likely been underestimated, by being misclassified as accidents. In the year 2016, Sweden finalized the introduction of more extensive investigation procedures to resolve more deaths by suicide. Before year 2016, railway fatalities with undetermined suicidal intent were simply classified as accidents by default, unless forensic autopsies or police decided otherwise. During the years 2016–2023, all fatalities were evaluated by using a special investigation form and undetermined or drug use deaths were further investigated by a psychosocial investigator. An expert group then classified these deaths as suicide or accident. We evaluated the effect of these altered procedures by interrupted time series (ITS) models using the official statistics concerning the percentage of deaths reported as suicides (%suicides). Over the entire study period, %suicides increased from ∼75 % to ∼87 %. Using ITS models accounting for a roll-in implementation period (2012–2016), displayed the best fit compared to alternative competing models, as well as a significant increase of %suicides by at least ∼4 % during the period after 2016 <em>per se</em> and ∼10 % if including the roll-in period. The effect after 2016 was mediated by a decline in the official accident counts, but more detailed classification data suggested that this was rather due to a reduction of undetermined causes of deaths. We conclude that the more extensive classification procedures reduced the misclassification of suicides as accidents, whereby we recommend its continued usage.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36621,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives","volume":"34 ","pages":"Article 101650"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145222764","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}

A predetermined percentage of WEO was added to the bitumen blends, which contain 50 % virgin and 50 % sRAP bitumen. Engineering and viscoelastic properties of the prepared blends were tested. Penetration test and high-temperature performance grade retention rate (PGRR) results show that aging rate decreases as OMNC percentage increases. It was observed that mixing WEO to blends reduces their viscosity, which approaches the level of virgin bitumen. High-temperature performance grade (PG) tests results show that addition of 6.6 % of WEO to unmodified sRAP blend decrease its high PG from 94 to 76 °C while adding 4.9 % WEO to the OMNC-modified sRAP blend decreases its high PG from 88 to 76 °C. The results of multiple stress creep recovery (MSCR) tests show that the addition of WEO to sRAP blends can lead to an enhancement in recovery percentage (%<em>R</em>) and a decrease in non-recoverable compliance (<em>J_nr</em>) values. Further, WEO also reduces the complex modulus (G*) and increases the phase angle (δ) at a wide range of frequencies.

This study systematically reviews recent literature to critically evaluate how this relationship is measured. Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, this systematic literature review synthesises methodological insights from a final analysis set of 35 key studies (32 empirical, 3 conceptual/review papers). Results show a clear evolution towards quasi-experimental methods, particularly difference-in-differences and its spatial variants often combined with instrumental variables to address endogeneity. However, significant challenges remain: establishing causal validity (parallel trends, instrument validity), adequately measuring HSR exposure beyond simple connectivity, capturing heterogeneous effects, modelling complex spatial dynamics (concentration, decay), and empirically validating intermediate mechanisms like tacit knowledge transfer, which often remain a theoretical 'black box'. In addition, most methodological explorations were conducted in the context of Chinese HSR, raising concerns about external validity. We conclude that while methodological sophistication is increasing, current approaches struggle to fully capture the systemic complexity and provide uncontroversial causal evidence.

This study investigates how individuals’ transport behaviors shifted and what factors drove these changes in response to fears of COVID-19 and financial instability. To address this question, we examined public transport behaviors from a novel perspective by introducing two dependent variables: changes in individuals’ actual use of public transport and their short-term transport plans. Our theoretical framework draws on the fear appeal theory, incorporating two primary independent variables—fears for health (COVID-19 related) and fears for financial conditions (pandemic-induced). Logistic regression analysis was conducted using data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s Household Pulse Survey, collected between June and July 2021. The results demonstrate significant impacts of both health-related and financial fears on public transport behaviors. An important insight is that risk-related pressures during the Delta wave were dynamic over short periods: indicators of health risk and pandemic-related financial insecurity predicted recent transit use differently than they predicted short-term trip planning. We interpret this pattern through a fear-appeal informed lens, treating variables as contextual proxies for threat exposure and resource constraints rather than direct measures of emotional states. To capture this dynamic, we introduce the concept of “threat (fear) salience transition,” which underscores the shifting nature of perceived risks. These findings offer practical implications for transit policy, particularly in managing evolving public responses under simultaneous health and financial pressures.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36621,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives","volume":"34 ","pages":"Article 101646"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145119948","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}
