Sustainable Transport Economics, Behaviour and Policy
This topical collection belongs to the section "Sustainable Transportation".
Topical Collection Information
Dear Colleagues,
Climate change and disruptive technologies have generated increasing pressure on transport professionals to focus on sustainable transport. Therefore, the planning, design, management and regulation of all transport services and infrastructures is a challenge to policy makers, transportation engineers, planners and behavioural scientists seeking to promote sustainable travel behaviours. This magnitude of this challenge will only increase as new technology and innovations such as connected, autonomous vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles, and Mobility-as-a-Service are introduced. Hence, this Special Issue focuses on research that aims to increase our understanding of sustainable travel behaviour, and the development, implementation and evaluation of measures to increase the efficiency, environmental friendliness, resilience and sustainability of existing and future transportation systems.
