In the wake of COVID-19 pandemic, scholars mobilized their efforts to address its far-reaching societal problems. With mobility restrictions being front and center a new cohort transportation science was developed within short period time. Here, we examine more than 400 studies related published across journals during 2020 2021. The aim is (i) scope this newly segment research, (ii) outline diversity pandemic-related issues various divisions field (iii) provide roadmap for future line research. Common themes are identified existing congruence discrepancies findings discussed. Results show that although conventional methods research were adopted in virtually all studies, no pre-pandemic study particularly instrumental development literature. appears have own independent knowledge foundation, that, it does not systemically frequently look back at any particular reference.

Abstract Background Various strategies to reduce the spread of COVID-19 including lockdown and stay-at-home order are expected road traffic characteristics consequently collisions (RTCs). We aimed review effects pandemic on incidence, patterns, severity injury, management, outcomes RTCs give recommendations improving safety during this pandemic. Methods conducted a narrative published in English language using PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar with no date restriction. search engine websites were also used retrieve relevant literature, discussion papers, reports, media news. Papers critically read data summarized combined. Results Traffic volume dropped sharply which was associated significant drop globally reduction deaths 32 out 36 countries April 2020 compared 2019, decrease 50% or more 12 countries, 25 49% 14 by less than 25% six countries. Similarly, there annual death 33 42 5 15–24% 13 15% 15 In contrast, opposite occurred four nine periods, respectively. There number admitted patients trauma centers related both periods. This has been attributed an increase speeding, emptier lanes, reduced law enforcement, not wearing seat belts, alcohol drug abuse. Conclusions The generally overall absolute numbers RTCs, their injuries despite relative injury death. most important factors that affected decreased mobility empty lines, crowding, increased speeding. Our findings serve as baseline for prevention current future pandemics.

A sharp decline in public transport use has been reported worldwide since the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic. As virus spreads through close contacts, particularly closed environments, vehicles could be considered as hotspots for its transmission. However, operations cannot entirely stopped many people developing countries rely on them their travel needs. This study aims to provide insights into people's mode choices during Data, i.e., 1,516 complete survey responses, were obtained a questionnaire that was conducted Lahore, Pakistan. binary logistic model developed using collected data likelihood choosing solo or modes COVID-19. The results explained respondents preferred more than Gender, income, education, profession, trip frequency, car ownership, motorbike and an underlying factor defined "safety precautions" found significant predictors choice relative modes. Females tend choose compared males. Private vehicle (car motorbike) owners less likely when those who do not own private vehicles. outcomes this important government authorities, policymakers, operators understand pandemics. Such information will useful devise regulations preventive measures control infectious diseases associated with use, countries, where options are limited.

This paper examines the determinants of changes in future public transport use Scotland after COVID-19 pandemic. An online questionnaire was distributed to 994 Scottish residents order identify travel habits, attitudes and preferences during different phases outbreak intentions Quota constraints were enforced for age, gender household income ensure sample representative population. The respondents indicated that they anticipated would make less buses trains at end Over a third expect (36%) (34%) less, whilst quarter drive their cars more. As part analysis, random parameter bivariate probit model with heterogeneity means parameters estimated provide insights into socio-demographic, behavioural perceptual factors which might affect usage. inclusion allows potential effects unobserved within independent variables be captured, making allowances parameters. estimation showed several factors, including pre-lockdown choices, perceived risk infection, size region significantly affected intended transport. In addition, related region, choices employment status resulted current contributes our understanding loss demand consequences equitable sustainable mobility. Our findings are highly relevant policy when developing measures strengthen resilience system

Digital nomads (DNs) are independent professionals who rely heavily on digital media and communications, not bound to the constraints imposed by traditional organizations, prioritize variables such as cheaper living costs when deciding where live. Communication technologies enable emergence of this lifestyle that is characterized high mobility, self-efficacy, location-independent resource-sharing, minimalism. The immediate outcome Covid-19 pandemic created an unprecedented space for debate between DN community mainstream. On one hand, mainstream recognized adaptive advantages location independence working remotely; other, DNs realized their most fundamental values—the freedom move—could become compromised stringent border regulations forcing them reassess nomadism.

Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic made a perceptible impact on daily travel behaviour worldwide, especially through mode shifts and changes in trip frequencies with possible long-term repercussions. Non-therapeutic interventions adopted worldwide (e.g. lockdowns restrictions) to reduce viral contagion need be understood holistically because it is challenging for people follow these policies stay home developing nations. In this context, important have clear idea of how COVID-19 shaping the mobility pattern what must taken (if not yet) minimize transmission as well develop sustainable transportation system. To end, study presents systematically analysed review 56 international literatures from academic sources (Google Scholar, Scopus Web Science) impacts focuses policymaking measures. This article illustrates modal shift, variation different trips sociodemographic characteristics influenced response COVID-19. Innate patterns compared pre-COVID-19 era were observed.
