This study utilizes cellular data to conduct a six-month tracking of the population in Beijing, aiming to provide a more precise analysis of urban population composition and behavior. The key findings are as follows: 1) Based on date trajectory data and considering long-term stay patterns, this study proposes a novel framework for examining urban population structures by integrating clustering algorithms and complex network theory. 2) The observation time window (OTW) was found to be closely associated with the identified urban population structure. A multi-level and multi-perspective sensitivity analysis was conducted on population size and proportion across different OTWs. The classification results were validated against resident population data from comprehensive transportation surveys, resulting in the identification of the optimal OTW for capturing the urban population structure. 3) Based on complex network theory, urban travel networks (UTNs) were constructed. Results revealed pronounced spatial heterogeneity and multi-centric patterns in travel behaviors across different groups, as reflected in global characteristics, local characteristics, and community structure. These findings offer valuable insights for urban transportation planning and management, highlighting the need for differentiated strategies tailored to the characteristics of diverse population groups.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48413,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Transport Geography","volume":"128 ","pages":"Article 104353"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144536183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It also evaluates how this synergy performs compared to existing travel options and explores its impact on reducing accessibility inequalities in the region. Using spatial analysis, potential job accessibility levels of a mid-sized urban region in Norway are estimated for four travel options: car, public transport, bicycle, and bike-transit synergy. The Modal Accessibility Gap index is derived to show disparities in accessibility levels provided by these travel options. Additionally, horizontal equity for each travel option is evaluated using the Lorenz curves and Gini index. Vertical equity is also evaluated using the Suits index, the Palma ratio, and the Percentile ratio. The results indicate that bike-transit synergy offers a fairer distribution of job accessibility in the region compared to the car, despite the latter offering significantly higher accessibility levels. These benefits are more pronounced in peri-urban areas, where the integration significantly enhances accessibility in the least accessible areas. However, the benefits are lower in the urban core, where jobs are concentrated, and in rural areas, where public transport quality is poor. The findings suggest that while bike-transit synergy is beneficial, it alone cannot resolve gaps with existing job accessibility levels provided by the car, reinforcing the need for an integrated transport and land use planning approach. The findings also highlight the need to consider alternative travel options as well as different equity definitions for a more coherent transport equity analysis.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48413,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Transport Geography","volume":"128 ","pages":"Article 104350"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144549063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents a diverse stakeholder framework for the strategic planning of curbside EV charging stations, focusing on San Francisco, CA. Utilizing a geospatial multi-criteria decision-making framework, this study evaluates potential curbside charging sites based on economic, fairness, and environmental criteria. Four scenarios (i.e., entropy weight method, equal weight method, high demand, and high need) are analyzed to produce curbside charging suitability maps and installation plans. A benefit evaluation system is incorporated to assess the economic, environmental, and social impacts of the proposed installation plans. The results show that the high need scenario, which targets underserved areas with high social and environmental needs, provides the greatest equity benefits. On the other hand, the high demand scenario focuses on areas with heavy traffic and high parking turnover, maximizing economic and environmental benefits, and outperforming the entropy weight method, equal weight method, and high need scenarios by 14%, 23%, and 57% in environmental benefits and 17%, 16%, and 13% in economic benefits, respectively. Neighborhoods are classified into six clusters based on factors such as demographics, parking space availability, and parking regulations to uncover the unique characteristics and needs. Urban planners should prioritize high-density residential areas for curbside charging, adjust parking regulations by extending EV parking durations during off-peak and establishing dedicated EV charging zones to reduce conflicts with general parking needs, and implement targeted incentive programs to facilitate curbside charging installations in underserved neighborhoods.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48413,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Transport Geography","volume":"128 ","pages":"Article 104328"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144502510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find that the rank–size distribution of hourly inflows over the course of the day is stable across cities. To uncover the microdynamics beneath the stable aggregate distribution amidst shifting location inflows, we analyzed consecutive-hour inflow size and ranking variations. Our findings reveal a dichotomy: locations with higher daily average inflow display a clear monotonic trend, with more pronounced increases or decreases in consecutive-hour inflow. In contrast, ranking variations exhibit a non-monotonic pattern, characterized by the stability not only of the top and bottom rankings, but also of mid-ranked locations in certain cities.

The paper combines a Multiscale Geographically Weighted Regression (MGWR) model with hierarchical cluster analysis, utilizing multi-source data from 288 metro station areas in Shanghai, China, to explore the spatiotemporal heterogeneity in the effects of TOD structural characteristics on metro ridership. The TOD structural characteristic is quantified based on three key components, the node, place, and their dynamic feedback, demographic indicators are incorporated to provide a more comprehensive analysis. The results reveal considerable spatiotemporal heterogeneity in the TOD-metro ridership relationship. Specifically, the ‘node’ and ‘place’ indicators contribute most at stations in surrounding suburban areas, ‘feedback’ indicators are more significant in both western and eastern corridors, ‘demographic’ indicators such as population density shapes ridership most in the northeast, while housing prices matter more in the northwest and southeast. While in the city center, the effects are more balanced. Furthermore, catering service and workplace service are two major drivers of metro ridership, and showing consistently positive impacts during morning and evening peaks. Besides, our study challenges the view that land use diversity generally benefits metro ridership.
