This study compares pre- to post-pandemic public-transit use among workers and non-workers, and the changing impact of local and regional accessibility. Additionally, we assess the impact of increased telecommuting on workers’ transit use before, during, and after the pandemic. We estimate two weighted multilevel linear regressions using a three-wave panel survey over the years 2019–2022 in Montréal, Canada. Results indicate that the factors that determine workers’ and non-workers’ transit patterns have tended to diverge after the pandemic. For workers, the relevance of accessibility in promoting utilitarian transit use considerably decreased, being responsible for close to 10% of the post-pandemic transit-use reduction. The increase of telecommuting frequency due to the pandemic contributed more than 10% of the post-pandemic transit-use reduction, but the effect of transit commuting time has remained relevant. For non-workers, the effect of regional accessibility by transit has increased after the pandemic, which has partly mitigated non-workers’ transit-use decline. Moreover, we find there is a joint effect of local and regional accessibility that has maintained after 2019 for non-workers. Results from this work have relevant implications for transit planners and policymakers. To help transit-use recovery, results suggest that providing good transit connection to the workplace promotes workers’ transit use, while promoting transit accessibility in lower-local-accessibility areas is key for non-worker transit ridership.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47173,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Transportation","volume":"26 ","pages":"Article 100087"},"PeriodicalIF":12.2,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1077291X24000079/pdfft?md5=763b5b1c118093af0d092992f81e44b7&pid=1-s2.0-S1077291X24000079-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140339398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to past studies that have quantified the impact of gender using survey and qualitative data, we examine a novel data-driven workflow utilizing a combination of previously developed origin, destination, and transfer inference (ODX) based on individual transit fare card transactions, name-based gender inference, and geospatial analysis as a framework to identify <em>mobility of care</em> trip making.

This study introduces a resilience index that magnifies the “unaveraged clues” of changes in Origin-Destination (OD) pairs to quantify the spatially unequal response of Seoul public transit use to external shocks from 2020 to 2023. Our findings reveal spatial heterogeneity in the resilience index of OD pairs and the dynamic change of related factors. OD pairs with high resilience during the outbreak were often associated with long-distance and labour-intensive industries, highlighting the need for transit systems to cater to “captive” travellers during the outbreaks. Despite overall ridership recovery in Seoul, factors like car ownership and the diversity of spatial functionality continued to influence patterns, which suggests that transit systems should focus on improving attractiveness to regain lost passengers post-pandemic.

Although these actors attempt to make the inspectors’ work as easy, effective, and equitable as possible, several issues need to be analysed according to a unifying approach, i.e., “<em>How, where and when to inspect</em>”, “<em>Who and why evades the fare</em>”, “<em>How many and how to distribute inspectors</em>” as well as improve the <em>inspectors’ effectiveness</em>. Since no study exists in the literature investigating all these issues together, this paper aims to fill this gap with a review of several key papers that covered the full spectrum of relevant literature which, whole or partially, focused on fare inspection. Results show fare inspection is a beneficial strategy against fare evasion, but there are still many challenges and research limits that should be overcome in the years ahead. A possible research agenda is provided. It calls for specific options (i.e., data collection and fare evasion risk in hotspot definition, digital support and bottom-up approaches, size of inspection staff and scheduling of inspectors under realistic conditions and follower responses, effectiveness of actions focused on the visibility of fare inspection, managing interactions between fare inspectors and passengers) and integrated approaches (i.e., linking the planning, organisation, and activities of fare inspection with who and why evade). Nevertheless, even if this review may not be conclusive, these results support a unifying literature development on fare inspection.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47173,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Transportation","volume":"26 ","pages":"Article 100101"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1077291X24000213/pdfft?md5=9ac4b8c78068bdfe3744482c68d4aa66&pid=1-s2.0-S1077291X24000213-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141883745","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
