Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metropolitan areas face serious traffic-related problems. Road traffic accidents cause a large number of deaths and disabilities every day. Moreover, traffic congestion has been increasingly severe around the world, causing enormous pollutant emissions to degrade air quality. Both traffic accidents and vehicle pollutions have become major public health issues. The recent development of new technologies such as big data, automated driving, and connected vehicle and cooperative vehicle infrastructure systems show great potential to enhance traffic safety and mitigate traffic congestion. By harnessing the power of these emerging technologies, a better understanding of data-driven traffic systems can be achieved, which is of practical importance to traffic safety and traffic operation.
This Special Issue aims to report on recent advances in interdisciplinary research related to understanding associated risks and the improvement of traffic safety and environment problems in transportation networks around the world. It is open to any subject area of the related theme, and research articles encompassing multiple fields, such as big data, ITS, automated driving, connected vehicle, cooperative vehicle infrastructure systems, etc., are particularly welcome. The International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health is indexed by SCI-E, PubMed, and other databases.
