“…The propensity to use the system varies with the service profile; the availability of bicycles is the most important factor, followed by the cost of renting a bike. In Spain, a survey of students was the basis for defining a methodological guide for the creation of mobility plans for university campuses in Cantabria (23). The study results indicate that the use of bikes is influenced mostly by the bus travel time, the travel time by bike, the availability and cost of parking in the university surroundings, and the fare of the bikesharing system.…”

Bikeshare has emerged as an influential new technology to improve nonmotorized transportation in cities across the globe. Latin American countries have lagged in the implementation of bikeshare systems. As such, there is a lack of studies that focus on bikeshare potential in Latin America. This study contributes to filling that gap by examining the potential demand of a proposed bikeshare system in the city of León, located in the central part of Mexico. The data of a stratified survey of 519 respondents are used to estimate a binary logit model on the stated intention to use the bikeshare system and thus to assess the factors that influence the potential interest in this mode of transportation. Some aspects of the results are consistent with other studies: potential bikeshare users must have a safe infrastructure, they will use bikeshare for regular trips from home to work, and bikeshare is competitive for short-duration trips. A few findings contrast with other studies: potential bikeshare users tend to be lower income and are not already cyclists, and some have very long transit commutes.

“…The estimation of transportation-related emissions along campus has been carried out by several universities (Appleyard et al, 2017). The development of a comprehensive travel survey to all university affiliates is one of most widely-used methods (Appleyard et al, 2017;dell'Olio, Bordagaray, Barreda, & Ibeas, 2014;Longo, Medeossi, & Padoano, 2015;Popovich, 2014;Welch, 2015) since it allows measuring mode split and commuting frequency. Mathez, Manaugh, Chakour, El-Geneidy, and Hatzopoulou (2013) estimated transportation-related greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions in McGill University campus (Canada) based on gender, travel mode, season and affiliation using a GIS platform.…”

This research explored the integrated effect that several mobility scenarios had on traffic performance, conflicts, global and local pollutants, and emission-related costs on a University Campus. An emphasis was given to the campus parking areas. One of the main contributions of this study was the identification of hotspot in terms of emissions, costs and traffic conflict locations. A well-calibrated and validated modeling platform of traffic, emissions and safety was used to examine different traffic scenarios in the University of Aveiro, Portugal. These included the replacement of traffic lights by roundabouts, direct access to campus and some parking areas, increasing campus walkability and introduction of speed humps on main crosswalks. The analysis was performed both link-by-link and in the overall study area. Mobility scenarios with a new direct access to the campus yielded average reductions up to 9% in both costs and local pollutants (carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons), and 36% and 32% for the number of stops and traffic conflicts, respectively. Nonetheless, additional traffic conflicts can be expected within campus after the implementation of those scenarios compared to the existing situation.

Uczelniom wyższym coraz częściej przypisuje się rolę liderów zmian na rzecz realizacji idei zrównoważonego rozwoju, w tym zrównoważonej mobilności. Działania prowadzone przez ośrodki akademickie powinny iść w parze z inicjatywami w ramach miejskiej i regionalnej polityki zrównoważonego rozwoju transportu. Dotychczasowe badania w tym zakresie koncentrują się przeważnie na studiach przypadku poszczególnych uniwersytetów, głównie pod kątem prowadzonych przez nie działań oraz ich skuteczności. Nieliczne studia porównawcze dotyczą mobilności społeczności akademickiej uniwersytetów publicznych. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest określenie, czy i w jakim stopniu występują różnice pomiędzy studentami uczelni prywatnej oraz studentami uczelni publicznej we Wrocławiu w zakresie podstawowych czynników determinujących wybory transportowe, preferowanych sposobów dojazdu do kampusów, a także satysfakcji z podróży i znaczenia poszczególnych postulatów transportowych. Analizę wyników przeprowadzonych badań ankietowych oparto na teście chi-kwadrat Pearsona, teście V Kramera, porównaniu median i częstości odpowiedzi. Zidentyfikowane różnice w badanych aspektach zachowań transportowych posłużyły sformułowaniu wytycznych dla miejskiej i regionalnej polityki zrównoważonego transportu.
