Cargo bikes fill an important gap in the urban transport market by combining the advantages of cycling with the greater transport capacity of a family car. Whereas most research on cargo bikes has focused on logistics, this paper addresses their use for personal transport. It is based on a large-scale survey in Switzerland among both proprietary cargo bike owners (CBO) and users of cargo bike sharing (CBS) (<em>N</em> = 955). A principal component analysis finds 3 families of motivations for using cargo bikes: transporting children, staying active, and reducing car use. Based on these 3 components, we use hierarchical clustering to identify 4 user segments: cargo transporters, enthusiasts, multimodals, and sustainable parents. Our results suggest that owned and shared cargo bikes are complementary and have the potential to attract new audiences to cycling and reduce car use. They could become a central component in a low-carbon/post-car urban mobility strategy. However, user experiences indicate that lacking safety, road infrastructure and parking provisions remain barriers to wider cargo bike use. We conclude by proposing a future research agenda for cargo bike research.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"18 9","pages":"Pages 751-764"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142530283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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 this transition, there is a need for available electric vehicle charging infrastructure (EVCI). Many logistic companies are installing their own EVCI, which is primarily used during the night. This study explores how providers could share and users book charging on digital platforms for EFVs by conducting a qualitative study of a pilot project for sharing. The study shows that providers need financial incentive, available EVCI while not having charging as a primary business model. Users tend to have uncertainties about charging, avoid public charging, and would benefit from driver support. A digital platform enables a wide range of actors to participate, while providing payment solutions and vehicle identification. The study presents several sustainability drivers and barriers. Economic drivers include increased revenues, low-cost charging, and a possibility to invest in cheaper vehicles. Environmental drivers include improved usage, potentially fewer batteries, and supporting the sustainability transition. Social drivers include a community of sharing, easy comparison, and improving predictability. Economic barriers include limited demand, limited usage, and a lack of interest from the provider. Environmental barriers include the risk of under-utilization, overcapacity where many providers install EVCI, and the risk of stressing the grid when utilizing fast charging for large trucks. Social barriers include uncertainty about reliability, grid limitations, and a lack of trust of actors in the system.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"18 9","pages":"Pages 777-790"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142530285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Transportation sector pavement-related emissions come from gasolines and diesel use in vehicles from pavement-vehicle interaction, which is affected by pavement conditions, and by the trucking of new pavement materials and demolition. The objective of this study was to develop a framework for determining the fuel use resulting in environmental impacts caused by construction work zones (CWZs) on a range of vehicles and to produce initial calculations of these impacts by modeling traffic closure conditions for highway maintenance and rehabilitation activities. The study included two common highway categories—freeways/multi-lane highways and two-lane highways. The framework was demonstrated using three CWZ operations under different traffic congestion levels. In the simulation results for a freeway with a CWZ and heavy congestion, fuel consumption increased by 85% and the carbon-dioxide equivalent emissions increased by 86%. Changing CWZ traffic congestion from heavy (average speed 5 mph) to medium (average speed 25 mph for a freeway section) reduced fuel consumption by 40% on a freeway. This study also included use of a pilot car in a CWZ on a two-lane road typical of lower traffic volume state highways and county roads to compare with the drive cycles in MOVES used for the scenarios. The pilot-car operation scenario results indicate that a one-lane closure with pilot-car operation on a two-lane road might consume 13% excess fuel because of idling time and the slow movement of vehicles following the pilot car.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"18 8","pages":"Pages 680-694"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142320289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Belt and Road Initiative, trade conflicts, and the COVID-19 pandemic have changed the global logistics flow, shifting cargos from maritime and air transport to railway transport along the countries in the Eurasian Landbridge. Though railway freight emits less carbon than road truck transportation, the increased use of railway freight brings in a higher volume of carbon emissions to cities located along the landbridges. Achieving net zero carbon emission is becoming more important, but there is a lack of literature in assessing the environmental impact of cross-border railway logistics transportation among Belt and Road countries. A novel two-stage multilateral trade-based prediction model is developed, integrating a modified gravity model and nonlinear autoregressive neural network for trade and emission forecasting. The model evaluates railway freight along the landbridge over ten years and forecasts the impact of carbon emissions from trading and logistics along the corridor in the subsequent five years. It further analyses the emissions impact of the proposed Third Eurasian Landbridge and the extended Second Eurasian Landbridge. The findings provide insights for the development of railway freight transport, considering trade and logistics flow, carbon emission mitigation strategies, and sustainability impact between China and other Belt and Road countries. While countries such as India and Kazakhstan were forecast to have significant amounts of carbon emissions in the projected period, the rapid growths in locations with smaller emission amounts such as Kunming and Georgia should draw attention and require continuous monitoring.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Transportation","volume":"18 8","pages":"Pages 633-650"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142320286","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
