Berlin has to be electric - and not just with regard to its techno scene. In May 2024, around 5600 taxis were registered in Germany’s capital but only a marginal amount of these vehicles was electrified. In order to reduce emissions in the transport sector, electrification is key. However, taxi owners and drivers are still sceptical when it comes to electric vehicles. Qualitative interviews with three early adopters gave insight into actual use and suitability of electric vehicles for the taxi sector. Operational characteristics as well as requirements of taxi drivers for a transition to electromobility were examined using a survey study with 75 taxi owners and drivers. The mixed-method approach further included a total-cost-of-ownership-analysis (TCO). Early adopters were enthusiastic about their e-taxis, mentioning driving comfort as well as financial advantages. At the same time, the lacking availability of charging infrastructure was criticised and perceived as a main barrier by the early adopters. Descriptive results from the survey study show that almost all taxi operations could be conducted with electric vehicles. Still, minimal acceptance for e-taxis is discernible from the survey study even though TCO results show cost benefits of e-taxis in all scenarios. It is recommended to give taxi drivers preferred or exclusive charging opportunities at train stations, airports, or hospitals. Furthermore, it is important that taxi drivers gain experience with electromobility themselves or learn from early adopters’ experiences as uncertainty and hesitations regarding electromobility still dominated the perceptions of non-adopters.

柏林必须是电的——而不仅仅是在它的科技领域。2024年5月，德国首都约有5600辆出租车注册，但其中只有一小部分是电动的。为了减少运输部门的排放，电气化是关键。然而，出租车车主和司机对电动汽车仍持怀疑态度。对三个早期采用者进行定性访谈，深入了解了电动汽车在出租车行业的实际使用和适用性。通过对75名出租车车主和司机的调查研究，研究了出租车司机向电动汽车过渡的运营特征和要求。混合方法方法进一步包括总拥有成本分析（TCO）。早期用户对他们的电动出租车充满热情，提到了驾驶舒适性和经济优势。与此同时，充电基础设施的缺乏受到了早期采用者的批评，并被视为主要障碍。调查研究的描述性结果表明，几乎所有的出租车业务都可以使用电动汽车进行。尽管TCO结果显示了电动出租车在所有情况下的成本效益，但从调查研究中可以看出，人们对电动出租车的接受程度最低。建议在火车站、机场、医院等地给予出租车司机优先或专属的充电机会。此外，出租车司机自己获得电动汽车的经验或从早期采用者的经验中学习是很重要的，因为对电动汽车的不确定性和犹豫仍然主导着非采用者的看法。

The school run is a persistent local transport issue in most urban areas. Private automobiles remain the dominant transport mode for school journeys, supported by infrastructure and vehicles designed for traffic flow, safety, comfort and convenience. While the car journey offers perceived benefits to carers, it also generates well-documented externalities, including traffic congestion, air pollution, reduced physical activity and increased risks for pedestrians and cyclists. The School Strike for Climate added the ground-up pressure from students to take action. This study explores a transdisciplinary systems approach to tackling the wicked problem of the car drop-off at primary schools. The transition engineering methodology was carried out to design a novel education programme that empowers students to understand global warming and the role of petrol car trips, communicate their needs to carers and contribute to achieving net-zero transport goals through equitable and inclusive changes. The programme was implemented in a participatory action research process involving over 300 students, educators and local stakeholders. Participants reflected that the programme catalysed a cultural shift within the school community, fostering ownership of sustainable school transport and aligning with broader community-level transport strategies. This article presents the design methodology, implementation of outcomes, prototyping experiences and stakeholder feedback. The article contributes a novel programme for sustainable school transport that supports the development of competencies among students to become change makers.

在大多数城市地区，办学问题一直是当地交通问题。私家车仍然是学校出行的主要交通方式，辅之以交通流量、安全、舒适和便利的基础设施和车辆。虽然汽车出行给护理人员带来了明显的好处，但它也产生了有据可证的外部性，包括交通拥堵、空气污染、体力活动减少以及行人和骑自行车者面临的风险增加。“为气候罢课”增加了学生采取行动的压力。本研究探讨了一种跨学科的系统方法来解决小学的汽车下车问题。实施过渡工程方法是为了设计一个新颖的教育计划，使学生能够理解全球变暖和汽油车旅行的作用，向护理人员传达他们的需求，并通过公平和包容性的变化为实现净零交通目标做出贡献。该方案是在涉及300多名学生、教育工作者和当地利益攸关方的参与性行动研究进程中执行的。与会者反映，该计划促进了学校社区的文化转变，促进了可持续学校交通的所有权，并与更广泛的社区一级交通战略保持一致。本文介绍了设计方法、结果的实现、原型设计经验和利益相关者的反馈。本文提出了一个新的可持续学校交通方案，支持学生成为变革者的能力发展。

The introduction of large-scale public transit infrastructure often carries the promise of improving regional mobility, reducing car dependency, and fostering sustainable urban development. However, the success of such investments depends not only on the quality of service delivered but also on how different segments of the population respond to the new mobility option. This study explores the impacts of a major infrastructure project, Réseau express métropolitain (REM) in Montréal, on the public transit market. The REM is a 67-km automated light rail system designed to enhance regional mobility in Montréal, Canada with an investment of more than $9 Billion CAD. We draw on cross-sectional and longitudinal data from the Montréal Mobility Survey in 2022 (before REM operations) and 2024 (after the opening of the South Shore branch). We apply exploratory factor analysis and weighted k-means clustering to identify and track transit user segments over time. Across both waves, a four-cluster solution emerged indicating that the overall market structure remained stable. However, longitudinal analysis revealed significant individual transitions, with many potential REM telecommuters reverting to car-oriented behaviors. These findings highlight the duality of stable market profiles but fluid individual behaviors, demonstrating that new infrastructure can reshape travel patterns within existing markets rather than creating entirely new ones. These findings are of interest to policymakers and transit planners interested in market segmentation to understand behavioral adaptation regarding new LRT infrastructures over time.

大规模公共交通基础设施的引入通常有望改善区域流动性，减少对汽车的依赖，并促进城市的可持续发展。然而，此类投资的成功不仅取决于所提供服务的质量，还取决于不同人群对新的流动选择的反应。本研究探讨了一个主要的基础设施项目，在montrsamao express msamtropolitain (REM)，对公共交通市场的影响。REM是一条全长67公里的自动化轻轨系统，旨在提高加拿大montrsamal的区域机动性，投资超过90亿加元。我们利用了2022年（REM运营之前）和2024年（南岸分公司开业后）montracimal流动性调查的横截面和纵向数据。我们应用探索性因子分析和加权k均值聚类来识别和跟踪交通用户段。在这两波浪潮中，出现了一个四集群解决方案，表明总体市场结构保持稳定。然而，纵向分析揭示了显著的个体转变，许多潜在的快速眼动远程工作者恢复到以汽车为导向的行为。这些发现强调了稳定的市场概况和不稳定的个人行为的两重性，表明新的基础设施可以重塑现有市场的旅游模式，而不是创造全新的市场。这些发现对决策者和对市场细分感兴趣的交通规划者很有意义，他们希望了解新的轻轨基础设施随着时间的推移所带来的行为适应。

Beyond proximity: Uncovering accessibility inequities in Barcelona’s climate shelters network for the summer of 2023 超越邻近：揭示2023年夏季巴塞罗那气候庇护所网络的可达性不平等

Over the past decade, climate shelters networks have been implemented in various cities worldwide, particularly in areas where the Urban Heat Island effect exacerbates the impact of heat waves. These networks aim to provide thermal comfort and, crucially, to reduce heat-related mortality among vulnerable populations, such as the elderly. However, effective implementation of such networks requires more than merely identifying shelters -it demands strategic planning to ensure true accessibility for at-risk groups. This study evaluates the accessibility of the Climate Shelters Network proposed by the Barcelona City Council during the summer months of 2023 (July and August), focusing specifically on the elderly population due to their heightened vulnerability to heat stress. Accessibility was assessed through three main dimensions: economic (payment), temporal (daily and seasonal operation) and spatial (proximity). Data were sourced from open datasets, fieldwork and direct communication with municipal authorities and shelter facilities. Geographic analysis was conducted using QGIS to define service areas and pedestrian accessibility was measured based on a 6-minute walking threshold under conditions of strong and very strong heat stress, assuming an average walking speed of 3.42 km/h for elderly people. While official municipal data claimed that 97 % of the population was within a 10-minute walking distance of a shelter in this time period, our findings reveal that real accessibility varied depending on the month, day of the week and time. In the worst-case scenario at night, when only a limited number of shelters were open, coverage dropped to 15 % of the total elderly population living in the municipality of Barcelona. This study highlights the importance of incorporating dynamic variables into the planning and management of urban climate adaptation strategies, particularly those intended to safeguard vulnerable populations during extreme heat events.

在过去十年中，气候庇护所网络已在世界各地的许多城市实施，特别是在城市热岛效应加剧热浪影响的地区。这些网络旨在提供热舒适，而且至关重要的是，减少老年人等弱势群体与热有关的死亡率。然而，有效实施这种网络不仅需要确定庇护所，还需要战略规划，以确保风险群体能够真正进入。本研究评估了巴塞罗那市议会在2023年夏季（7月和8月）提出的气候庇护所网络的可达性，特别关注老年人，因为他们更容易受到热应激的影响。可达性通过三个主要维度进行评估：经济（支付）、时间（日常和季节性运营）和空间（邻近性）。数据来自开放数据集、实地调查以及与市政当局和住房设施的直接通信。利用QGIS进行地理分析，定义服务区域，并在假设老年人平均步行速度为3.42 km/h的条件下，基于6分钟步行阈值测量步行可达性。虽然官方的市政数据声称，在这段时间里，97%的人口在10分钟步行距离内就能找到一个避难所，但我们的研究结果表明，实际的可达性取决于月份、一周中的哪一天和时间。在最糟糕的情况下，晚上只有有限数量的庇护所开放，覆盖范围下降到巴塞罗那市老年人口总数的15%。本研究强调了将动态变量纳入城市气候适应战略规划和管理的重要性，特别是那些旨在在极端高温事件中保护弱势群体的战略。

In the context of social resource inequality among the elderly, understanding elderly’s travel behavior is of importance for enhancing mobility services. Recent attention has been investigated the built environment impacts on travel decisions, however, the influencing mechanisms and its extent on elderly’s mobility patterns are not yet well understood. In particular, how the mode choice behavior of older population is shaped by their habitual behavior remains underexplored. Using the Dutch national travel survey data, this study explored the non-linear effects of historical travel patterns and the built environment on mode choice behaviors, as well as the heterogeneity across different aged groups. We found that historical travel patterns exert a larger impact on mode choice comparing to the built environment factors. Significant threshold effects of built environment factors on mode choice (indicating non-linear impacts) are observed. Older adults tend to walk within a travel distance of 2.5 km and use bike for longer trips beyond 3.5 km. The findings are valuable for policymakers in promoting active mobility patterns for older adults through infrastructure planning.

在老年人社会资源不平等的背景下，了解老年人的出行行为对加强出行服务具有重要意义。近年来，人们对建筑环境对老年人出行决策的影响进行了研究，但对建筑环境对老年人出行模式的影响机制和影响程度尚不清楚。特别是，老年人的模式选择行为是如何被他们的习惯行为所塑造的，仍然没有得到充分的研究。利用荷兰国家旅游调查数据，本研究探讨了历史旅游模式和建成环境对模式选择行为的非线性影响，以及不同年龄组之间的异质性。研究发现，历史出行模式对出行方式选择的影响大于建筑环境因素。建筑环境因素对模式选择的阈值效应显著（表明非线性影响）。老年人倾向于在2.5公里的旅行距离内步行，在3.5公里以上的长途旅行中使用自行车。研究结果对政策制定者通过基础设施规划促进老年人积极流动模式具有重要价值。

As cities pursue low-carbon mobility transitions, equitable access to electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure remains a persistent planning challenge, particularly for aging populations with reduced mobility. This study evaluates walkable access to public EV charging stations on Montréal Island, with a focus on elderly care facilities, highlighting that equitable, age-sensitive charger placement is increasingly vital as the city’s aging population risks being overlooked in current infrastructure planning. Using GIS-based spatial analysis, we model accessibility to public EV charging infrastructure for both the general adult population and older adults, applying age-adjusted walking speeds within a 15-minute threshold. The results show that walk-up accessibility is systematically lower for older adults and is strongly associated with median age and the spatial concentration of urban amenities. We identify “double-burden” zones where demographic vulnerability (higher shares of older residents) intersects with infrastructure gaps, underscoring the limitations of proximity-based planning when it is decoupled from equity considerations. Building on these findings, our focused analysis of elderly care facilities and their surrounding walkable environments exposes a critical infrastructure gap: nearly half of these sites have no public EV charging stations within a reasonable walking distance. To inform targeted interventions, we overlay areas of poor charger accessibility with point-of-interest (POI) density and apply a simple greedy siting heuristic, identifying priority zones for deployment that maximize both need and broader community benefit. To contextualize these disparities, we develop a causal loop diagram that links charger deployment, equity objectives, and market dynamics, framing policy levers for equity-based planning of EV charging infrastructure. This research offers a transferable framework for cities aiming to align EV infrastructure with inclusive, proximity-based urban planning goals, ensuring that the electrification transition does not leave aging populations behind

随着城市追求低碳交通转型，电动汽车（EV）基础设施的公平使用仍然是一项持续的规划挑战，特别是对于交通不便的老龄化人口。这项研究评估了montracimal岛公共电动汽车充电站的可步行性，重点是老年人护理设施，强调公平，年龄敏感的充电器安置越来越重要，因为城市的老龄化人口有可能在当前的基础设施规划中被忽视。利用基于gis的空间分析，我们采用15分钟阈值内的年龄调整步行速度，对普通成年人和老年人到公共电动汽车充电基础设施的可达性进行了建模。结果表明，老年人的无电梯可达性总体较低，且与中位年龄和城市便利设施的空间集中度密切相关。我们确定了人口脆弱性（老年居民比例较高）与基础设施缺口相交的“双重负担”区域，强调了与公平考虑脱钩时基于邻近性的规划的局限性。基于这些发现，我们对老年护理设施及其周围步行环境的重点分析揭示了一个关键的基础设施缺口：近一半的这些设施在合理的步行距离内没有公共电动汽车充电站。为了告知有针对性的干预措施，我们用兴趣点（POI）密度覆盖充电器可达性差的区域，并应用简单的贪心选址启发式方法，确定部署的优先区域，以最大化需求和更广泛的社区利益。为了理解这些差异，我们绘制了一个因果循环图，将充电器部署、公平目标和市场动态联系起来，为基于公平的电动汽车充电基础设施规划制定政策杠杆。这项研究为城市提供了一个可转移的框架，旨在使电动汽车基础设施与包容性、基于邻近性的城市规划目标保持一致，确保电气化转型不会使老龄化人口落后

The efficiency of demand responsive transport (DRT) services, such as ridepooling, has garnered significant attention across various (simulation) studies. However, a deeper look into the metrics employed to assess system performance exposes notable discrepancies in their utilization. Notably, certain indicators, such as the pooling rate, demonstrate a susceptibility to manipulation based on input parameters, potentially skewing results to give a more favorable impression of service performance. In this paper, we show that, under such circumstances, achieving a fair comparison between study outcomes and with traditional (public) transport modes becomes challenging.

In light of these challenges, this study introduces a novel operational performance indicator: Operational System Efficiency (OSE). OSE is tailored to evaluate the operational efficiency of ridepooling systems in a holistic way. In particular, it combines important operational indicators such as detour factor and empty kilometers share, which are considered in numerous analyses. Hereby, OSE is fostering a more equitable assessment of service performance. We applied this methodology and calculated the indicators provided in other studies to two real-world trip datasets from ridepooling services in Berlin and Münster, Germany, and compared the results. Distinct disparities emerge in comparison with conventional efficiency indicators. Consequently, the proposed OSE holds promise for stakeholders, including service providers, public transport companies, and regulatory authorities, as a valuable tool for determining the suitability of a ridepooling service for a given locale relative to other transport modalities, while also providing a transparent assessment of its efficiency.

需求响应交通（DRT）服务的效率，如拼车，在各种（模拟）研究中引起了极大的关注。然而，更深入地研究用于评估系统性能的度量，就会发现它们的利用率存在显著差异。值得注意的是，某些指标，如池化率，显示出对基于输入参数的操纵的敏感性，可能会扭曲结果，从而给服务性能提供更有利的印象。在本文中，我们表明，在这种情况下，实现研究结果与传统（公共）交通方式之间的公平比较变得具有挑战性。鉴于这些挑战，本研究引入了一种新的运营绩效指标：运营系统效率（operational System Efficiency， OSE）。OSE旨在全面评估拼车系统的运营效率。特别是，它结合了重要的业务指标，如绕行系数和空公里份额，这是在许多分析中考虑的。因此，OSE正在促进对服务绩效的更公平的评估。我们将这一方法应用于其他研究中提供的指标，并将其计算到两个来自德国柏林和梅 nster的拼车服务的真实旅行数据集，并对结果进行比较。与传统效率指标相比，出现了明显的差距。因此，拟议的OSE为包括服务提供商、公共交通公司和监管机构在内的利益相关者带来了希望，作为一种有价值的工具，可以确定拼车服务相对于其他交通方式在特定地区的适用性，同时还提供了对其效率的透明评估。

The rapid growth of electric vehicles (EVs) has heightened the need for innovative charging solutions. Charger sharing services (CSS), an emerging sharing model, leverage privately-owned chargers to supplement public infrastructure, and contribute to sustainable urban mobility. Drawing on survey data collected from 604 charger-owning households living in the ULEZ zones, we estimate a variance-based structural equation model and conduct a multi-group comparison between the Inner ULEZ and the surrounding Expanded ULEZ. Across both zones, economic, moral and social motives strongly and positively shape attitudes, and attitude in turn dominates intention to share. Secondary drivers vary spatially: knowledge about sharing services raises attitudes only inside the IULEZ, whereas perceived scarcity of public chargers suppresses sharing willingness only there. No structural paths differ significantly in magnitude between zones, indicating a robust core decision calculus with context-specific modifiers. As one of the first study to focus on this innovative sharing mobility model, this study provides nuanced data-driven insights into regional variations in private charger owners’ sharing decision and offering evidence-based recommendations for policymakers and practitioners to optimize resource utilization.

电动汽车（ev）的快速增长提高了对创新充电解决方案的需求。充电器共享服务（CSS）是一种新兴的共享模式，利用私人拥有的充电器来补充公共基础设施，并为可持续的城市交通做出贡献。本文利用604个居住在超限区域内的充电户的调查数据，估计了基于方差的结构方程模型，并对超限区域内与周边扩展超限区域进行了多组比较。在这两个地区，经济、道德和社会动机强烈而积极地塑造了态度，而态度反过来又主导了分享的意愿。次要驱动因素在空间上存在差异：关于共享服务的知识只会提高IULEZ内部的态度，而公共充电器的感知稀缺只会抑制共享意愿。区域之间没有结构路径的显著差异，表明具有上下文特定修饰符的稳健核心决策演算。作为首个关注这一创新共享出行模式的研究之一，本研究提供了细致入微的数据驱动的见解，揭示了私人充电器所有者共享决策的区域差异，并为政策制定者和从业者提供了基于证据的建议，以优化资源利用。

As cities around the globe strive to improve urban sustainability and resilience while tackling challenges like climate change, Moreno's 15-minute city model is becoming increasingly popular in urban planning research and practice. Several previous studies have applied different spatial modeling frameworks to assess whether contemporary cities align with the vision of this model. To date, few studies have focused on the applicability of this model in Global South cities. As such, further empirical research is required to advance our understanding of the global relevance of the 15-minute city concept beyond narratives predominantly rooted in Western urbanism. Our study aims to fill this gap by operationalizing the model for seven major Iranian cities and highlighting the relationships between social exclusion and inequitable access to everyday needs. We show significant variation in the levels of walking access to different activity location categories within and across the study cities, with inner areas exhibiting better access and marginal areas showing poorer access to essential services. Furthermore, residents’ deprivation level was strongly associated with a higher probability of reaching everyday services beyond a 15-minute walk— except for two cities. We discuss that although in study cities essential amenities are, to some extent, accessible within a 15-minute walk or bike ride, significant socio-cultural, institutional, and infrastructural barriers; such as, imposed restrictions on women’s cycling, inadequate active travel infrastructure, and the persistent non-recognition of walking as a legitimate mode of transportation continue to hinder the meaningful implementation of the model in Iranian context.

随着世界各地的城市在应对气候变化等挑战的同时努力提高城市的可持续性和弹性，莫雷诺的15分钟城市模型在城市规划研究和实践中越来越受欢迎。之前的几项研究应用了不同的空间建模框架来评估当代城市是否符合该模型的愿景。迄今为止，很少有研究关注这一模式在全球南方城市的适用性。因此，需要进一步的实证研究来加深我们对15分钟城市概念的全球相关性的理解，超越主要植根于西方城市主义的叙述。我们的研究旨在通过在伊朗七个主要城市实施该模型来填补这一空白，并强调社会排斥与不公平获取日常需求之间的关系。我们发现，在研究城市内部和城市之间，不同活动地点类别的步行通道水平存在显著差异，内部区域显示出更好的通道，而边缘区域显示出更差的基本服务通道。此外，除了两个城市外，居民的贫困程度与15分钟步行路程以外获得日常服务的可能性较高密切相关。我们讨论了尽管在研究城市中，基本设施在一定程度上可以在15分钟步行或骑自行车的范围内获得，但重大的社会文化，制度和基础设施障碍；例如，对妇女骑自行车的限制，缺乏积极的旅行基础设施，以及一直不承认步行是一种合法的交通方式，继续阻碍在伊朗境内有意义地实施这种模式。

Equitable access to essential amenities is crucial for sustainable urban areas, yet achieving it remains challenging in North American cities characterized by car-centric development and sprawling urban patterns. This paper investigates how multimodal transportation networks reshape access to “Healthy Food Establishments (HFEs)” in Montreal. Using high-resolution block-level data, verified HFE locations, and multimodal routing with the r5r engine, we model three accessibility scenarios: walking-only, cycling-only, and combined active travel plus transit. Accessibility is measured through a cumulative-opportunity and gravity-based metric, capturing temporal thresholds and the variety of destinations. Our analysis reveals significant disparities in food accessibility under walking-only conditions, with nearly half of Montreal residents lacking adequate access within a strict 10-minute timeframe. Cycling considerably improves accessibility, yet the highest levels of equitable access are only achieved through integrated multimodal scenarios that combine active transportation and public transit. Our results underscore the importance of planning multimodal transit nodes that facilitate integrated trip-chaining, emphasizing the need for policy interventions that prioritize continuous, low-stress cycling infrastructure, high-frequency transit services, and clustered essential amenities to bridge accessibility gaps in underserved areas.

公平获得基本设施对于可持续城市地区至关重要，但在以汽车为中心的发展和无序的城市模式为特征的北美城市中，实现这一目标仍然具有挑战性。本文研究了多式联运网络如何重塑蒙特利尔“健康食品场所”的可及性。利用高分辨率的街区级数据、经过验证的HFE位置和r5r引擎的多模式路由，我们模拟了三种可达性场景：仅步行、仅骑车和主动出行加公交相结合。可达性通过累积机会和基于重力的度量来衡量，捕捉时间阈值和目的地的多样性。我们的分析显示，在仅步行的条件下，食物可及性存在显著差异，近一半的蒙特利尔居民在严格的10分钟时间内缺乏足够的食物。骑自行车大大改善了可达性，但只有通过将主动交通和公共交通相结合的综合多式联运方案，才能实现最高水平的公平可达性。我们的研究结果强调了规划促进综合出行链的多式联运节点的重要性，强调了政策干预的必要性，优先考虑连续、低压力的自行车基础设施、高频交通服务和集群性基本设施，以弥合服务不足地区的可达性差距。
