Emerging research is delving into the integration of smart technologies in transport systems, including the use of data analytics for improving urban mobility and infrastructure planning. - Equity in Transportation:
There is a growing emphasis on the social dimensions of transport equity, with researchers exploring how transportation policies impact different demographic groups and contribute to social justice. - Climate Change and Urban Resilience:
Increasing attention is being paid to the role of transportation in climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies, highlighting the need for resilient urban planning in the face of environmental challenges.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Automobile-Centric Planning:
Research centered around automobile dependency and traditional road planning appears to be less frequent, indicating a shift towards more sustainable transportation models. - Single-Modal Transportation Analysis:
Studies focusing exclusively on single modes of transport, such as cars or buses, have decreased, with a growing emphasis on multimodal transportation systems. - Static Land Use Models:
The use of static models that do not account for dynamic urban changes and interactions is becoming less prevalent, as researchers move towards more adaptive and integrated modeling approaches. - Short-Term Transportation Impacts:
Publications examining only immediate transportation impacts without considering long-term effects and sustainability are declining as the focus shifts towards holistic, long-term urban mobility solutions. - Limited Geographic Scope:
Research that concentrates solely on localized case studies without broader implications or comparisons is waning, reflecting a growing interest in global perspectives and comparative analyses.
