Towards an equity-centred model of sustainable mobility: Integrating inequality and segregation challenges in the green mobility transition by Tammaru, Tiit, Sevtsuk, Andres, Witlox, Frank

“…An equitable shift towards greener mobility needs to (1) address rising levels of residential segregation by promoting neighbourhood-level mixed-income housing, (2) radically shift urban space from automobility to different greener forms of mobility, (3) address not only neighbourhood specific, but also metropolitan-level access challenges to key activity places, (4) focus on integrating broadly accessible and affordable travel modes, particularly active travel (walking and cycling) and public transit, and (5) develop e-mobility solutions that are accessible to diverse user needs and offer flexible inter-neighbourhood coverage.…”
