Biographical note
Edited by Olivier Bonin, Researcher, LVMT, École des Ponts and Université Gustave Eiffel, France, Karst T. Geurs, Professor of Transport Planning, University of Twente, the Netherlands, Aura Reggiani, Alma Mater Professor of Economic Policy, University of Bologna, Italy and Panayotis Christidis, Joint Research Centre, European Commission, Spain<i>‘The transport system is transitioning to new forms, driven primarily by digital innovations and smarter technologies, but also demands from environmental and public health imperatives. Lifestyle changes, patterns of consumption and a recent global pandemic have accelerated this transition. In the last few years transport research has slowly re-focused on the various elements of the transition, hoping to support ambitious sustainability and climate goals. This book brings together a mix of academics from different geographies to tackle some of these “new” trends in transport. It provides researchers and students with the key topics, methodologies and possible research gaps to better understand the impacts of emerging and future transport.’</i>

<i>‘An excellent book bringing together the state of knowledge on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mutual relationships between (a) travel behaviour, (b) societally relevant effects like ICT-use (teleworking, e-shopping, …), (equity of) accessibility, congestion, environmental and health impacts, and (c) planning and public policies.’</i>
