Comprehensive review from holistic perspective is crucial and missing. This research aimed to offer comprehensive and critical research insight, identify gaps, and propose future directions by analyzing and synthesizing the complete research spectrum of city logistics sustainability assessment. Systematic literature review with iterative approach was applied and 299 articles from Scopus and Web of Science databases were selected and reviewed through content analysis. Results revealed that “transport” and “collaboration” were the most addressed research themes whereas “infrastructure” was the least investigated. Regarding the method practices, findings indicated the prevalence of “indicator system” method group in almost all research themes, except “transport” and “planning” in which “performance evaluation model” and “multi-criteria decision-making” method groups were preferred. As for sustainability coverage, “abiotic”, “resource”, “cost”, and “society” related aspects of sustainability were commonly addressed among studies whereas “biotic”, “earning”, and “city” related aspects were often neglected. In terms of indicator selection, results pointed out the heterogeneity and lack of consensus among studies under current research practices. Through in-depth review analysis, this study proposed comprehensive indicator framework for researchers to provide guidance on future indicator selection processes, offered critical literature insight into existing city logistics sustainability initiatives and their effects on city logistics sustainability for policy makers to consider trade-offs among various initiatives for better decision-making processes, and identified gaps and the way forwards to assist researchers for further advancing the research domain.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36621,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives","volume":"33 ","pages":"Article 101603"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145045301","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, this approach has notable shortcomings, including drivers’ tendency to underestimate their speeds, speed creep, and insufficient consideration of vulnerable road users, which may conflict with the Safe System Approach and Vision Zero initiatives endorsed by the USDOT (US Department of Transportation). In contrast, context-sensitive approaches, which classify roads based on roadway typologies, have been developed in countries like New Zealand, Sweden, the Netherlands, and Australia. While effective, these approaches have largely been applied outside the US, leaving many US roads with speed limits that may not fit their surroundings or adequately address pedestrian and cyclist safety. Drawing on New Zealand’s One Network Framework, we developed a US-based, context-sensitive roadway classification framework for urban and suburban areas that incorporates “<em>Place,”</em> which captures surrounding land uses and locational contexts, and “<em>Movement,</em>” which relates to the road’s transport function. Using nationally available data from the Smart Location Database (SLD) and the Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS), we evaluated our roadway classification framework through internal reviews by our research team and external interviews with state-level practitioners, uncovering both opportunities and challenges in adopting a context-sensitive SLS approach in the US. Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of creating an objective context-sensitive roadway classification in the US and offer insights for developing new speed-limit guidance aligned with the Safe System framework.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36621,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives","volume":"33 ","pages":"Article 101621"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145007556","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 tripartite game model of urban parking governance benefits is developed, based on the parking choice behavior of users. The model is applied to data from Harbin City to analyze the shifts in benefits among different stakeholder groups under various urban parking governance collaboration models. Case studies reveal three key findings: (1) under the current parking partnership model, price adjustments can lead to positive benefits for both managers and operators in the service procurement model; (2) in the other two models, managers’ benefits remain relatively stable before and after price adjustments; (3) operators’ benefits show more variability, while users’ benefits are minimally affected by the partnership model between managers and operators. This research provides new insights into resolving uncertainties in the cooperation models between parking lot managers and operators, and offers recommendations for improving urban parking governance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36621,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives","volume":"33 ","pages":"Article 101619"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145095645","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}

In a TCS, a central authority, such as a municipality, distributes a certain number of credits to potential travellers within a network and charges them credit-based tariffs according to their mobility choices; travellers who save credits can profit by selling their unused credits to other travellers. Compared to other demand management strategies, such as pricing or odd–even plate rationing schemes, TCSs can be more equity-oriented and more likely to be accepted by public opinion, putting them under the research community’s focus in the last decade.
