“…Road transport is the most widely used form of mobility, which provides high flexibility, requires low capital investments, and is suitable for short-distance journeys (Sorensen et al, 2021; Kurenkov et al, 2019; He et al, 2019). It offers a greener, more efficient, and safer future through the use of intelligent transport technologies (Faiyetole and Fulani, 2020; Faiyetole and Jegede, 2019; Skeete, 2018; Wang et al, 2022a) and channels the spread of infectious diseases through interstates, state-wide, and intra-community trips (Okeke et al, 2022; Faiyetole, 2022; Rojas-Rueda and Morales-Zamora, 2021; Gaskin et al, 2020; Carrington, 2020). Unique accessibility, such as door-to-door transportation services, includes various means of alternatives, such as cars, buses, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, and others (Tchanche, 2019; Fremont and Franc, 2010).…”
