Summary: Short-term travel demand forecasting is a critical step in transportation system management, but it faces challenges due to the complex relevance among OD pairs, temporal dependencies, and external factors. This study proposes an innovative deep learning approach called MF-ResNet, which converts the complex relevance among OD pairs into graphical-based spatial dependencies. Experimental results show that MF-ResNet robustly captures multiple complex dependencies and outperforms traditional methods in terms of forecasting accuracy.

Summary: The study found that descriptive norms, teleworking and e-learning, and attitudes toward COVID-19 have a positive impact on travel frequency and activity-travel behavior changes during the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, ICT experience influenced a decrease in travel frequency and ride-hailing use. While personal attributes did not significantly affect activity-travel behavior change, they directly influenced ICT use. People living outside of Java Island had a higher travel frequency during the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic.

Summary: This paper investigates the impact of technological progress on carbon emissions in the transport sector and finds that environmental technologies have no significant positive effect on CO2 emissions. Additionally, economic growth and energy consumption lead to more pollution while urbanization does not have a statistically significant impact on emissions. Policymakers in EU15 countries are recommended to pay special attention to the transport sector in order to achieve a carbon-neutral economy.

Summary: This study develops an EnSoS framework for evaluating the sustainability performance and identifying obstacles in the freight transport industry. The proposed framework utilizes an integrated multi-criteria decision-making method and includes two sustainability enablers, nine dimensions, and sixty-three sustainability attributes. The fuzzy best-worst method and fuzzy logic approach are used for evaluation. The framework is validated with a case study in the Indian freight industry, providing policy measures for improving sustainability obstacles.

Summary: The study found that trip distance, precipitation, and access distance are fundamental factors in micro-mobility mode choice. Additionally, personal e-scooters and e-bikes emit less CO2 than the transport modes they replace, while shared e-scooters and e-bikes emit more CO2 than the transport modes they replace.

Summary: This study explores the differences in pedestrian injury severities between day and night vehicle-pedestrian crashes in Kansas over a five-year period. The findings suggest a clear day-night difference in injury severities, with nighttime crashes consistently resulting in more severe injuries. Factors affecting pedestrian injury severities were found to change over time.

Summary: This study aims to explore the factors influencing the adoption intention of electric vehicles (EVs) in India. An integrated model based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) was developed, using perceived risk as a predictor and environmental concerns and government support as moderators. The findings indicate that performance expectancy and facilitating conditions positively influence the adoption intention of EVs, while perceived risk has a negative impact. Government support was found to moderate the relationship between perceived risk and adoption intention, reducing the negative effect of perceived risk. This study validates the UTAUT framework in the context of EV adoption in India and contributes to the literature on psychological factors affecting the intention to adopt new products.

Summary: The rise of e-commerce has led to significant changes in personal travel and activities, with most studies finding that online shopping substitutes for traditional shopping travel. However, research has mainly focused on trip frequency and neglected other travel outcomes, while few studies have considered the modification effect which is important for travel demand management. Previous studies have not reached a consensus on the dominant effect of online shopping due to diversity in variables, goods types, study areas, and analytic methods.

Summary: This study provides a review of literature on modal shifts in the US and other countries, revealing that shared e-scooters may be a good strategy for reducing car dependence in many US cities. However, the extent of integration between shared e-scooters and public transit varies by city, suggesting the need for technology, regulations, and incentives to ensure successful integration.
