The role of transport accessibility within the spread of the Coronavirus pandemic in Italy

Armando Carteni et al.

Summary: The study explores the correlation between transport accessibility and Covid-19 infection cases, finding that higher accessibility can lead to easier spread of the virus, becoming a main vehicle of contagion during a pandemic. Besides accessibility, other factors like socio-economic, territorial, and pollutant variables also significantly impact infection rates, providing insights for managing mobility restrictions more effectively.

Modeling epidemic spreading through public transit using time-varying encounter network

Baichuan Mo et al.

Summary: This study proposes a time-varying weighted public transit encounter network to model the spread of infectious diseases through public transit systems, considering both local and global social activity contacts. The research shows that people's preventative behavior is one of the most effective measures to control epidemic spread; partial closure of bus routes can slow down but not fully contain the epidemic; identifying influential passengers using smart card data and isolating them early can effectively reduce the epidemic spread.

Insight into the Impact of COVID-19 on Australian Transportation Sector: An Economic and Community-Based Perspective

Hafiz Suliman Munawar et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the transportation sector in Australia, resulting in reduced demand, decreased revenues in air travel, freight transport, and public transport industries, as well as a decrease in public transport usage. Reaching pre-pandemic levels in the transportation sector will require the relaxation of containment policies and financial support from the government.

Time lag effects of COVID-19 policies on transportation systems: A comparative study of New York City and Seattle

Zilin Bian et al.

Summary: This study proposes a change point detection framework to quantify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on transportation systems, finding that the speed of policy response differs from the policy impact on travel. The research shows that government actions in response to the pandemic significantly affect travel patterns, with the magnitude of impact depending on the characteristics of the area and the type of transportation system.

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel behavior in Istanbul: A panel data analysis

Shahin Shakibaei et al.

Summary: This paper aims to investigate the impacts of the pandemic on travel behavior in Istanbul, Turkey, through a longitudinal panel study conducted in three phases during the early stages of the epidemic and pandemic. The transition in travel activity pattern and transport mobility appears to be quite extreme, particularly for commuting and SRL trips, due to social distancing measures and closure of non-essential venues.
