Transgender individuals have visible gender expressions that distinguish them from other gender minorities, including lesbian, gay, bisexual or queer individuals. This visibility increases their vulnerability to gender-based violence and harassment in public spaces, and restricts their mobility on public transport and access to basic amenities for healthcare, education and employment. This issue is particularly severe in culturally conservative societies. This study aims to address the issue by exploring public acceptance of transgender individuals on public transport in Pakistan and recommending equitable transport policies for enhancing their mobility. Using the conceptual framework of the theory of planned behavior (TPB), a questionnaire was developed, and 474 responses were collected via an online survey. A multivariate structural equation model (SEM) was developed, and the results reveal that perceived behavioral control and intentions have a positive and significant relationship with transport policy interventions. Regarding the socioeconomic characteristics, male individuals, those with higher education, and those who meet transgender individuals more often, exhibit positive attitudes towards supportive transport policies aimed at enhancing transgender mobility on public transport. According to the findings, numerous equitable transport policies such as providing dedicated spaces and seats on public transport for transgender individuals, implementing dedicated car-sharing programs, enforcing transgender protection acts, and improving public acceptance through education and awareness campaigns, are recommended.

跨性别者有明显的性别表达，将他们与其他性别少数群体（包括女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋或酷儿）区分开来。这种能见度增加了她们在公共场所遭受基于性别的暴力和骚扰的脆弱性，限制了她们乘坐公共交通工具的流动性，限制了她们获得医疗、教育和就业等基本便利设施的机会。这个问题在文化保守的社会尤为严重。本研究旨在探讨巴基斯坦公众对公共交通上跨性别者的接受程度，并建议公平的交通政策以提高他们的流动性，从而解决这一问题。运用计划行为理论的概念框架，编制了一份问卷，并通过在线调查收集了474份反馈。建立多元结构方程模型（SEM），结果表明，感知行为控制和意向与交通政策干预之间存在显著正相关关系。在社会经济特征方面，男性个体、受过高等教育的个体和经常遇到跨性别者的个体对旨在提高跨性别者公共交通流动性的支持性交通政策表现出积极的态度。根据调查结果，建议了许多公平的交通政策，如在公共交通上为跨性别者提供专用空间和座位，实施专用汽车共享计划，执行跨性别保护法，以及通过教育和宣传活动提高公众的接受度。

Recent studies have examined socio-spatial inequalities in public transport accessibility in Global South cities, consistently showing that lower-income groups face reduced access. However, most rely on scheduled GTFS data to estimate travel times, ignoring day-to-day travel time variability caused by congestion or service disruptions. This oversight limits our understanding of how such variability impacts accessibility levels and inequalities – especially when using more robust indicators that account for competition over opportunities. Emerging research points to a complex interplay between travel time variability and competition for activities, with potential to bias inequalities assessments. Yet, these effects remain underexplored. This study addresses such gap by integrating GPS and GTFS data to assess how daily fluctuations in transit performance affect job accessibility and inequality estimates using both cumulative and competition-based metrics. Using data from Fortaleza, Brazil, our findings show that day-to-day variability significantly influences both accessibility levels and inequalities – regardless of the indicator used. When jobs competition is considered, socio-spatial inequalities widen, as variability is generally lower in central areas and higher in the periphery. Moreover, competition-based measures – adding the interaction between the population distribution, the location of job opportunities, and the level-of-service of the public transport system – amplify the effects of variability, leading to greater observed disparities than cumulative metrics. These findings highlight a critical link between transit reliability and accessibility inequalities, underscoring the need for future studies and policy evaluations to consider travel time variability and competition effects when assessing equitable access to opportunities in Global South metropolises.

最近的研究调查了全球南方城市公共交通可达性的社会空间不平等，一致表明低收入群体的可达性减少。然而，大多数依赖于计划的GTFS数据来估计旅行时间，忽略了由拥堵或服务中断引起的日常旅行时间变化。这种忽视限制了我们对这种可变性如何影响可及性水平和不平等的理解，特别是在使用更可靠的指标来考虑机会竞争时。新兴研究指出，旅行时间的变化和活动竞争之间存在复杂的相互作用，可能会对不平等评估产生偏见。然而，这些影响仍未得到充分探索。本研究通过整合GPS和GTFS数据来评估交通绩效的日常波动如何影响工作可达性和使用基于累积和竞争的指标来估计不平等，从而解决了这一差距。利用来自巴西福塔莱萨的数据，我们的研究结果表明，无论使用何种指标，日常变化都会显著影响可及性水平和不平等。当考虑到就业竞争时，社会空间不平等就会扩大，因为变异性通常在中心地区较低，而在外围地区较高。此外，基于竞争的衡量标准- -加上人口分布、就业机会地点和公共交通系统服务水平之间的相互作用- -扩大了可变性的影响，导致比累积衡量标准更大的观察到的差异。这些发现强调了交通可靠性和可达性不平等之间的关键联系，强调了未来研究和政策评估在评估全球南方大都市公平获得机会时考虑旅行时间变化和竞争影响的必要性。

Accessibility analysis has long been used to gauge inequalities and inequities in people's ability to reach employment, education, greenspaces, and other activity locations. This paper proposes that the contributions that accessibility analysis makes to addressing transportation justice can be enhanced if the knowledge production processes that generate accessibility outcomes are adapted. It therefore introduces a transdisciplinary approach to co-produced space-time accessibility measurement, CoProSTAM, in which experiential, practitioner, and academic knowers collaborate closely. CoProSTAM has been developed on the basis of our collaboration between academic researchers, a collective of low-income women (Dimú), and local policymakers in the Medellin metropolitan area in Colombia. The paper also presents an empirical application which shows how accessibility varies according to the location of publicly available childcare facilities, with profound implications for the livelihoods and opportunities for healthy living among low-income women in the Global South. By building on our CoProSTAM approach, accessibility researchers will be able to reduce the epistemic injustices that are embedded in much transportation research and foster new ways of understanding inequalities in accessibility in urban and peri-urban areas.

长期以来，可达性分析一直被用来衡量人们在就业、教育、绿地和其他活动场所的能力方面的不平等和不平等。本文提出，如果对产生可达性结果的知识生产过程进行调整，可达性分析对解决交通公平问题的贡献可以得到加强。因此，它引入了一种跨学科的方法来共同生产时空可达性测量，CoProSTAM，其中经验，从业者和学术知识人员密切合作。CoProSTAM是在学术研究人员、一群低收入妇女（Dimú）和哥伦比亚麦德林大都市区的当地政策制定者之间合作的基础上开发的。该文件还提出了一项实证应用，显示了可获得性如何因公共托儿设施的位置而异，这对全球南方低收入妇女的生计和健康生活机会产生了深远影响。通过建立我们的CoProSTAM方法，可达性研究人员将能够减少许多交通研究中存在的认知不公正，并培养理解城市和城郊地区可达性不平等的新方法。

The selection of logistics facility locations is a critical decision that influences supply chain efficiency, cost structures and operational resilience. While previous studies have extensively examined the role of transport accessibility in location choices, the interplay between socio-demographic, transport-related and environmental constraints remain partially underexplored. This study addresses this gap by developing a conditional logit model to assess the impact of these factors on logistics facility location decisions, using the Emilia-Romagna region (Italy) as a case study. The model incorporates key determinants of location choice, including proximity to transport infrastructure (highways, freight terminals, rail stations), population density, environmental risks (flooding and seismic hazards) and land-use restrictions (protected natural areas). Results confirm that transport accessibility is the primary driver of logistics location choices and that socio-demographic factors, particularly population, also influence location preferences. Conversely, environmental constraints exert a negative effect on site selection, reducing the likelihood of a location being chosen. These findings bring significant policy implications. Investments in logistics-oriented transport infrastructure – such as enhanced highway connectivity, intermodal terminals and advanced congestion management systems – remains essential for strengthening regional logistics competitiveness. Moreover, implementing risk mitigation measures in location choice process analysis, including flood-resilient warehousing and seismic-resistant facilities, can enable firms to operate in moderate-risk areas without undermining operational resilience. Finally, integrated transport and land-use planning that harmonizes industrial expansion with environmental sustainability, through initiatives like eco-industrial parks, can support the development of resilient and efficient logistics systems.

物流设施位置的选择是影响供应链效率、成本结构和运营弹性的关键决策。虽然以前的研究广泛考察了交通可达性在地点选择中的作用，但社会人口、交通相关和环境制约因素之间的相互作用仍未得到充分探讨。本研究通过开发一个条件logit模型来评估这些因素对物流设施选址决策的影响，以艾米利亚-罗马涅地区（意大利）为案例研究来解决这一差距。该模型结合了地点选择的关键决定因素，包括靠近交通基础设施（高速公路、货运站、火车站）、人口密度、环境风险（洪水和地震灾害）和土地使用限制（自然保护区）。结果证实，交通可达性是物流选址选择的主要驱动因素，社会人口因素，特别是人口，也影响选址偏好。相反，环境约束对选址产生负面影响，降低了选址的可能性。这些发现带来了重大的政策影响。投资以物流为导向的运输基础设施，如加强公路连接、多式联运码头和先进的拥堵管理系统，对加强区域物流竞争力仍然至关重要。此外，在地点选择过程分析中实施风险缓解措施，包括抗洪仓储和抗震设施，可以使公司在中等风险地区开展业务，而不会损害业务弹性。最后，通过生态工业园区等举措，将工业扩张与环境可持续性相协调的综合运输和土地利用规划，可以支持弹性和高效物流系统的发展。

Many studies have examined how characteristics of the commute itself, such as mode, duration, and environment, influence commuting satisfaction. However, limited research has explored how satisfaction in other life domains, such as community and job, might compensate for commuting dissatisfaction, particularly among multimodal commuters. Drawing on structural equation modeling of data from 3259 white-collar commuters in Beijing, this study identifies two distinct pathways, environmental support (matching travel modes with preferences) and psychological adaptation (tolerating less satisfied commuting), through which community and job satisfaction contribute to commuting satisfaction. Further analyses for different multimodal commuting groups show that the interaction mechanisms between satisfaction and cognitive dissonance in commuting behavior are moderated by individuals' mobility and their prioritization of housing-commuting decisions. By bridging community, job, and commuting satisfaction, this study advances the understanding of behavioral logic in commute-related decisions.

许多研究调查了通勤本身的特征，如方式、持续时间和环境如何影响通勤满意度。然而，有限的研究探讨了其他生活领域的满意度，如社区和工作，如何补偿通勤的不满，特别是在多模式通勤者中。通过对北京3259名白领通勤者数据的结构方程建模，本研究确定了环境支持（将出行方式与偏好匹配）和心理适应（容忍较不满意的通勤）两种不同的途径，社区满意度和工作满意度通过这两种途径对通勤满意度产生影响。对不同多模式通勤群体的进一步分析表明，通勤行为满意度与认知失调之间的交互机制受到个体流动性和住房-通勤决策优先级的调节。通过连接社区、工作和通勤满意度，本研究促进了对通勤相关决策行为逻辑的理解。

Understanding urban planning interventions from the perspective of mobility biographies. An empirical study of a newly developed car-reduced neighbourhood in Darmstadt, Germany 从流动性传记的角度理解城市规划干预。德国达姆施塔特新开发的汽车减少社区的实证研究

In the pursuit of sustainable urban mobility, some municipalities have developed car-free neighbourhoods that restrict the parking of private vehicles. While these settlements successfully reduce car use, this strict parking ban imposes great challenges on the residents. In contrast, car-reduced neighbourhoods limit the number of private parking spaces, without banning them entirely. So far, only a few studies have examined the modal effects of car-reduced neighbourhoods, finding diverse travel patterns and some persisting car dependence. From a mobility biographies perspective, the modal impact of relocating to car-reduced neighbourhoods may be influenced by other concurring key events, such as childbirth or changes in employment.

This study examines changes in travel mode use among 339 recently relocated residents of the car-reduced Lincoln neighbourhood in Darmstadt, Germany, and then analyses the impact of key events on these changes. A cluster analysis reveals five types of modal change: two with high pre-relocation car use that (1) remains high in one type and (2) decreases in the other; and three multimodal types: (3) remaining multimodality with low car use, (4) increasing multimodality with reduced car use and (5) remaining multimodality with medium car use. Overall, the car-reduced neighbourhood has caused the majority of its residents to drive less and adopt more car-independent, multimodal travel practices. Therefore, such settlements can be an effective strategy to curb urban car traffic and promote sustainable travel. Importantly, this effect occurs regardless of life stage transitions, as key events prompting the relocation exert limited influence on the modal change types.

为了追求可持续的城市交通，一些城市开发了无车社区，限制私家车的停放。虽然这些定居点成功地减少了汽车的使用，但严格的停车禁令给居民带来了巨大的挑战。相比之下，减少汽车数量的社区限制了私人停车位的数量，但没有完全禁止它们。到目前为止，只有少数研究调查了减少汽车的社区对交通模式的影响，发现了不同的出行模式和一些持续的汽车依赖。从流动性传记的角度来看，迁移到汽车较少的社区的模式影响可能受到其他同时发生的关键事件的影响，例如分娩或就业变化。这项研究调查了德国达姆施塔特林肯社区339名最近搬迁的居民的出行方式的变化，然后分析了关键事件对这些变化的影响。聚类分析揭示了五种类型的模态变化：两种类型的高迁移前汽车使用率(1)在一种类型中保持高水平，(2)在另一种类型中减少；(3)低汽车使用量的剩余多模态；(4)低汽车使用量的增加多模态；(5)中等汽车使用量的剩余多模态。总的来说，减少汽车数量的社区使大多数居民减少了开车次数，并采取了更多的无车、多式联运的出行方式。因此，这种住区可以成为抑制城市汽车交通和促进可持续出行的有效策略。重要的是，无论生命阶段的转变如何，这种效应都会发生，因为促使迁移的关键事件对模态变化类型的影响有限。

Dynamic accessibility modelling for cycling: Incorporating time-of-day and demographic variability in infrastructure preferences 自行车的动态可达性建模：结合一天中的时间和基础设施偏好的人口变化

Increasing the opportunities for people to cycle addresses some of society's greatest challenges, including congestion, low air quality, health concerns, and unequal access to amenities. Current accessibility modelling identifies reachable spatially distributed activities but falls short of incorporating cycle parking facilities as well as riders' characteristics and time-dependent perceptions of cycling infrastructure.

This article addresses this gap by developing the dynamic accessibility framework. It is applied to the university market town of Loughborough, UK, in an exemplary manner. The results showcase that accessibility to services depends on personal characteristics alongside time-dependent variables and that accessibility models should account for the presence of cycle parking facilities.

The presented framework can be used as a tool to determine the best strategy to increase cycling accessibility on a spatially granular level, be it through improvements of cycling infrastructure and street lighting or behaviour change interventions.

增加人们骑自行车的机会可以解决一些社会面临的最大挑战，包括交通拥堵、空气质量差、健康问题以及设施的不平等。目前的可达性模型确定了可到达的空间分布活动，但缺乏纳入自行车停车设施以及骑自行车者的特征和对自行车基础设施的时间依赖的看法。本文通过开发动态可访问性框架来解决这一差距。它以一种模范的方式应用于英国拉夫堡大学集镇。结果表明，服务的可达性取决于个人特征和时间相关变量，可达性模型应该考虑到自行车停车设施的存在。所提出的框架可以作为一种工具来确定在空间颗粒级上增加自行车可达性的最佳策略，无论是通过改善自行车基础设施和街道照明还是行为改变干预措施。

The urgency of the climate crisis necessitates new forms of mitigation, and within the transport sector, a key measure is to reduce car use. This study presents empirical findings from a 10-month living lab experiment in which participants residing in a semi-urban area were challenged to halve their car trips while gaining access to new mobility and accessibility services. The results indicate that car trips were not significantly reduced despite high levels of motivation among participants, and the offered services were not integrated into participants' everyday life. These findings underscore two key points. First, reducing car dependency and transitioning to sustainable mobility in semi-urban areas requires more than the introduction of new technologies or services. Successful integration of new mobility and accessibility services demands a comprehensive understanding of local everyday practices and their associated mobility practices. Second, it is essential to acknowledge the established role of the car in everyday life in semi-urban contexts and to promote a willingness to adapt planning and infrastructure in ways that prioritise sustainable modes of transport, and restrict car access and use. We argue that without addressing these issues, efforts to reduce car use through adding new mobility services are likely to fall short, limiting their effectiveness in achieving sustainable mobility goals.

气候危机的紧迫性需要新的缓解形式，在运输部门，一项关键措施是减少汽车的使用。本研究展示了一项为期10个月的生活实验室实验的实证结果，在该实验中，居住在半城市地区的参与者被要求将他们的汽车旅行减少一半，同时获得新的移动和无障碍服务。结果表明，尽管参与者的积极性很高，但汽车出行并没有显著减少，而且所提供的服务并没有融入参与者的日常生活。这些发现强调了两个关键点。首先，在半城市地区减少对汽车的依赖并向可持续交通过渡，需要的不仅仅是引入新技术或新服务。成功集成新的移动性和无障碍服务需要对当地日常实践及其相关的移动性实践有全面的了解。其次，必须承认汽车在半城市环境下的日常生活中所扮演的既定角色，并促使人们愿意调整规划和基础设施，优先考虑可持续的交通方式，限制汽车的进入和使用。我们认为，如果不解决这些问题，通过增加新的移动服务来减少汽车使用的努力可能会功亏一篑，从而限制了它们在实现可持续移动目标方面的有效性。
