“…Moreover, safety and security concerns coupled with trip-chaining tendencies have been identified previously as factors which may predispose female citizens to favour passenger car travel [ 88 , 89 ]. Therefore, the finding re-emphasises the importance of factoring gender-based considerations into urban vehicle access regulation planning and other transport policy decisions [ 90 , 91 ].…”

In cognisance of the urgent need to decarbonise the transport sector to limit its impact on climate change and to internalise other negative transport externalities, regulating vehicle access in urban areas is essential. However, urban areas often struggle to implement these regulations due to concerns relating to social acceptability, heterogeneity of citizen preferences, lack of information on preferred measure attributes, and other factors that can boost the acceptance of urban vehicle access regulations. This study explores the acceptability and willingness to support Urban Vehicle Access Regulations (UVAR) in Budapest, Hungary to reduce transportation emissions and promote sustainable urban mobility. Using a structured questionnaire, which includes a choice-based conjoint exercise, the study finds that 42% of respondents were willing to support a car-free policy measure. Results were analysed to elicit preferences for specific UVAR measure attributes, identify population subgroups, and assess factors influencing willingness to support UVAR implementation. Access fee and proportion of revenue earmarked for transport development were the most important attributes to respondents. The study also identified three distinct subgroups of respondents with differing preferences, which could be characterised based on access to passenger cars, age, and employment status. The findings suggest that for effective UVAR, access fees for non-compliant vehicles should be excluded from measure designs, and the attribute preference approach highlights the importance of considering the heterogeneity of residents’ preferences in UVAR measure planning.

This article reviewed the urban vehicle access control policies derived from disparate spatiotemporal dimensions that aim to eliminate the negative externalities of traffic caused by urbanization. Urban access regulations are important tools often required to achieve the sustainable mobility vision of cities. Employing a systematic literature review methodology, this review summarized and analyzed various urban access control policies to enlighten policymakers and future scientific research. The results indicate that combinations of multiple-dimensional restriction policies (including inter-policy and intra-policy) have more significant effects than implementing a single policy. Classified according to their objectives, control policies were discussed in terms of their benefits and limitations. The authors are inspired to propose and describe five paradoxes of urban access control policies.

“…Fuel efficiency standards incentivise manufacturers to produce more fuel-efficient and low-emission vehicles, thereby reducing overall emissions [10]. Implementing emission standards for vehicles and enforcing compliance can help reduce harmful pollutants released into the atmosphere [18]. Congestion pricing schemes aim to reduce traffic congestion and vehicle emissions by incentivising alternative modes of transport [19].…”

This research investigates the effect of green transport implementation and supporting policies on air pollution reduction in Central Kalimantan through quantitative analysis. The study employs survey methods to collect data from residents, policymakers, and stakeholders, focusing on perceptions of green transport adoption, policy effectiveness, and air quality. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using Partial Least Squares (PLS) path modeling is utilized to analyze the relationships between latent constructs and test research hypotheses. The findings reveal significant positive associations between environmentally friendly transportation implementation, supporting policies, and air pollution reduction. Specifically, both green transport adoption and policy effectiveness are found to positively influence perceptions of air quality. The results underscore the importance of promoting sustainable transportation solutions and implementing effective policy interventions to mitigate air pollution and promote environmental sustainability in Central Kalimantan. These findings contribute valuable insights to the literature on green transport strategies, policy interventions, and air pollution reduction, informing evidence-based decision-making and guiding the development of targeted interventions to address environmental challenges in the region.
