摘要

本文弥补了有关大流行病对流动性影响的文献与有关低排放区(LEZ)影响的文献之间的空白。利用 2018-2021 年期间欧洲大城市的数据,我们研究了低排放区是否可以解释欧洲城市在科威德冲击后交通恢复模式的差异。在控制了几个城市属性后,我们考察了低排放区城市与非低排放区城市相比,在大流行前后是否拥堵程度较低。大流行后,低排放区在减少拥堵方面可能更加有效,因为车队更新过程放缓了;或者,低排放区可能是与政府和市民对可持续交通的态度有关的不可观测因素的代表。我们的研究结果验证了低排放区在 Covid-19 大流行后的交通缓解作用,尽管这一结果仅适用于低排放区的先驱城市。因此,在 Covid-19 大流行后,低排放区的交通缓解作用似乎与影响早期决定实施低排放区的不可观测属性有关。在这方面,我们还发现,鉴于我们没有发现在地方或区域层面决定的低排放区之间存在差异,低排放区可能诱发了与可持续交通相关的地方属性的变化。

Have low emission zones slowed urban traffic recovery after Covid-19?

This paper bridges the gap between the literature on the pandemic’s effects on mobility and the literature on the impact of low emission zones (LEZ). Using data for large European cities in the period 2018–2021, we examine whether LEZs may explain differences in the recovery patterns of traffic in European cities after the shock of Covid. Controlling for several city attributes, we examine whether LEZ cities are less congested before and after the pandemic in comparison to non-LEZ cities. LEZs may have been more effective in reducing congestion after the pandemic because the fleet renewal process has slowed down or, alternatively, LEZs may be a proxy of unobservable factors related with attitudes of governments and citizens toward a sustainable mobility. Our results validate the traffic-mitigating role of the LEZ after the Covid-19 pandemic, although such result only holds for the pioneering LEZ cities. Hence, the traffic-mitigating role of the LEZ after the Covid-19 pandemic seems to be related to unobservable attributes that influenced the early decision to implement a LEZ. In this regard, we also find that LEZs may have induced a change in local attributes related to sustainable mobility given that we do not find differences between LEZs decided at the local or regional level.

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Sustainable Transportation provides a discussion forum for the exchange of new and innovative ideas on sustainable transportation research in the context of environmental, economical, social, and engineering aspects, as well as current and future interactions of transportation systems and other urban subsystems. The scope includes the examination of overall sustainability of any transportation system, including its infrastructure, vehicle, operation, and maintenance; the integration of social science disciplines, engineering, and information technology with transportation; the understanding of the comparative aspects of different transportation systems from a global perspective; qualitative and quantitative transportation studies; and case studies, surveys, and expository papers in an international or local context. Equal emphasis is placed on the problems of sustainable transportation that are associated with passenger and freight transportation modes in both industrialized and non-industrialized areas. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial evaluation by the Editors and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert reviewers. All peer review is single-blind. Submissions are made online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
