Urban Rails

We used content analysis with script close reading to analyse the natural conversations revolving in environmental, personal, safety and transportation factors. We found narrow sidewalks but with high pedestrian flow posed a challenge for older people.

We use a new metro line in Hong Kong as a natural experiment to examine the impact of the metro-led public transport intervention on elderly health. In Hong Kong, more than 90% of daily travels are made by public transport.

We used the first metro system in a developing city as a natural experiment to investigate the causal inference in the new metro’s impact on modal shift and active travel.

In this paper, we explore whether it is possible to use bicycle to replace a portion of short-distance public transport trips.

In this paper, we develop a 67-item urban rail walking access scan tool to measure the walking environments of access routes to urban rail transit.
