Determinative Variables Toward Promoting Use of Active Modes of Transportation: Enhancing Level of Sustainable Mobility in Communities

摘要

Most current transportation systems around the world are cause for pressing concern and a menace to sustainability of social justice, and economic and environmental vitality. From a universal agreement that transportation needs an urgent alteration in travel modes, policies, planning, and behaviors through to the emergence of sustainability in the transportation sector, a significant and central vision has emerged to guide urban policymakers, transportation planners, and public health officials. During the last four decades, a shift in transportation modes toward use of active modes of transportation has been encouraged, and it is one of the main sustainability movements appearing in many developing and developed countries. This research provides a narrative review and parsing of existing literature, which focuses on promoting active modes of transportation. The aim is to clarify key determinative variables that must be considered by planners and policymakers toward promoting use of active modes of transportation for daily mobility.
