As fuel prices increased, private vehicle users were incentivized to shift to public transportation, raising concerns about a potential rise in COVID-19 cases. Using a hybrid model with F-GLS estimators, we find that higher fuel prices are correlated with increased COVID-19 cases, though this effect diminishes with greater public transportation availability. We estimate that when public transportation capacity falls below 6,500 seats per capita per kilometre, case numbers rise. Thus, robust public transportation systems may help limit the spread of airborne viruses, while inadequate systems could exacerbate transmission.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46989,"journal":{"name":"Case Studies on Transport Policy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142578814","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}

This paper estimates random effects regression models for the Greater Sydney Metropolitan Area and South-East Queensland over four waves of data collected in 2020 and 2021, where this last one represents a period with almost full vaccinations and minimum restrictions (i.e., ‘new normal’). By jointly estimating four waves of data within a single modelling framework, we are able to track the changing roles of the influences found to be statistically significant across the waves. The elasticity outputs reveal how these influences impact on the propensity to WFH, giving clues on whether we were starting to see a stabilisation of WFH activity mid-way in the pandemic period that can be reflective of a ‘new normal’.

Passengers flow was studied to improve passenger experience, increase operational efficiencies, maximize retail revenues and increase security effectiveness. It was indicated that customs and security facilities require expansion in areas during peak hours to maintain a high level of performance. However, the check in premium showed the minimum gap between queue capacity and the declared queuing size indicating the high level of service in this area. The results revealed that immigration queueing requires expansion. Moreover, queuing area provision indicates no capacity issues to cope with maximum queue size.

TSI is estimated using 29 most appropriate transport sustainability indicators under four pillars of sustainability, viz. environmental, social, economic, and technological. Optimization of TSI involves following steps, viz. identification of three independent variables, i.e. fuel consumption (X<sub>1</sub>), registered vehicles (X<sub>2</sub>) and population (X<sub>3</sub>) which influence all the indicators, data collection in respect of indicators and influencing variables for 30-year time period (from year 2000 to 2030), evolution of regression equations between indicators and influencing variables, and formulation of TSI as a multi-variate non-linear expression in terms of influencing variables, which is used for optimization. The generalized reduced gradient non-linear programming optimization technique is used to solve for the optimum values of influencing variables (X<sub>1</sub><sup>opt</sup>, X<sub>2</sub><sup>opt</sup>, X<sub>3</sub><sup>opt</sup>) as 0.0988, 0.4709 &amp; 0.0 respectively and optimum value of TSI (TSI<sup>opt</sup>) as 0.71, which is 25% higher than the TSI of 0.59 for the year 2023–24. The knowledge of optimum value of TSI would help the city transport policy planners to allocate, only that much quantum of infrastructural and financial resources so as to reach optimum rather than extremum values, which leads to potential savings or conservation of resources.

Therefore, this study aims to investigate how airline service quality, perceived value, emotional attachment, and airline brand loyalty influence passengers’ WTP for airline services, and to what extent passengers’ perceptions of airline origin can moderate these effects. Data were gathered using questionnaires and were analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), structural equation modelling (SEM), and multi-group analysis. The results revealed that airline service quality, perceived value, and brand loyalty significantly contribute to passengers’ WTP. It also proved that passengers’ biased perceptions towards national airlines can strengthen the positive effects of these variables on their WTP for national airlines and vice versa for their WTP for foreign airlines.

The article argues that the implementation of gender equality policies in the public transport sector without addressing misogynistic attitudes driven by patriarchal norms endangers women rather than empowering them. It found that ZUPCO female conductors experienced humiliating informal initiation into the job, negative labelling, inability to reconcile work and family and sexual abuse and harassment, which undermined the noble goal of enhancing gender equality in the public transport sector. Regardless of these negative effects, female conductors also enjoyed some degree of empowerment through employment and monetary gain, which gave them economic independence.

This process involves extracting vessels’ dwell location information within ports from trajectory data and using this information and its sequence to establish an Anchorages-Berths Micro-Network (ABMN) in port. By applying association rule mining techniques, this research reveals the spatial service relationships within the micro-network between anchorages and berths, and integrates relevant indicators to develop the ASDS model. The aim is to help pilots of approaching vessels in making more rational anchorage choices, thus optimizing the operational efficiency of vessels in ports.

The students engaged in one of two choice scenarios, presented with general characteristics, operational efficiency, vehicle cost, and subsidy strategies. Subsequent to the scenarios, respondents indicated their willingness to pay (WTP) for a ETWV. ETWVs, apart from being an emerging transportation alternative, also present potential environmental and health benefits due to reduced air pollution. The dependent inverse hyperbolic sine (IHS) double-hurdle model was employed, facilitating the accommodation of heteroscedasticity and correlated normality. The outcomes suggest that purchasing behavior for ETWVs among college students is shaped by factors such as purchase subsidy, tax breaks, and ETWVs’ capability in supporting students’ external travel requirements. The average WTP for ETWVs among this demographic stands at US$ 1,410. Importantly, the dependent IHS double-hurdle model, considering heteroscedasticity, proved statistically superior to its counterparts.
