Public Transportation Access and Food Insecurity

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 65, Issue 5, Page 1449-1467, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Public transportation networks connect poor urban households in food deserts to grocery options and nutritious food. This paper examines how the exit of public transit options in an urban food desert affects a household's access to and utilization of grocery stores over drug and dollar stores, as well as the healthfulness of the foods these ...

Rail and road public transport: Cooperation or coexistence?

Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives, 2020
In this paper we analyse the performance of 34 multimodal public transport networks worldwide to investigate whether the service characteristics of their metro components significantly affect bus performance and vice versa as well as whether their ...

Passenger Flows in Underground Railway Stations and Platforms, MTI Report 12-43 [PDF]

, 2015
Urban rail systems are designed to carry large volumes of people into and out of major activity centers. As a result, the stations at these major activity centers are often crowded with boarding and alighting passengers, resulting in passenger ...

Public Transit Access and Income Segregation

International Economic Review, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 1525-1560, October 2025.
ABSTRACT What are the implications of mass transit improvements for residential income segregation within cities? I observe large income differences in households' usage of and residential proximity to “fast” versus “slow” transit (e.g., subways vs. buses on shared lanes).

Multidimensional station level determinants of metro ridership during extreme demand days in Guangzhou

Discover Cities
Understanding metro ridership drivers is vital for transit planning. This study employs a multidimensional framework–encompassing the built environment, intermodal interaction, network topology, and operational features–to analyze ridership at 100 ...

Spatially Varying Effect Mechanism of Intermodal Connection on Metro Ridership: Evidence from a Polycentric Megacity with Multilevel Ring Roads

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information
Understanding the spatially varying effect mechanism of intermodal connection on metro ridership helps policymakers develop differentiated interventions to promote metro usage, especially for megacities with multiple city sub-centers and ring roads ...

Impact of a New Metro Line in Amsterdam on Ridership, Travel Times, Reliability and Societal Costs and Benefits

European Journal of Transport and Infrastructure Research, 2020
The north-south metro line in Amsterdam became operational in summer 2018, accompanied by changes to the existing bus, metro, and tram network in the city. In this paper we undertake an ex-post analysis of the transportation impacts of the network change.

Hierarchical Regularizers for Reverse Unrestricted Mixed Data Sampling Regressions

Journal of Forecasting, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 1946-1968, September 2025.
Abstract Reverse Unrestricted MIxed DAta Sampling (RU‐MIDAS) regressions are used to model high‐frequency responses by means of low‐frequency variables. However, due to the periodic structure of RU‐MIDAS regressions, the dimensionality grows quickly if the frequency mismatch between the high‐ and low‐frequency variables is large.

Multi‐task graph‐based model for metro flow prediction under dynamic urban conditions

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 21, Page 3239-3258, 29 August 2025.
Abstract Accurately predicting metro commuter flows under changing urban conditions is essential for guiding infrastructure investments and service planning. However, existing methods show limited adaptability to evolving urban conditions. To address this, we propose an adaptive graph sharing embedding cascade interaction network (AGSECIN), which ...

“Moments of Change” and Low‐Carbon Behaviors: A Multidisciplinary, Systematic Review

WIREs Climate Change, Volume 16, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
Moving house is one of the most well‐studied “moments of change” that can have significant impacts on low‐carbon behaviors, such as reducing car use. Photo by cottonbro studio: https://www.pexels.com/photo/family‐unpacking‐after‐moving‐4569340/. ABSTRACT Individual behavior change is essential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate ...
