The COVID-19 pandemic showed how transport plays a role in societal
responses to global events at all levels, from governments to
transport operators and individuals. Transport and Pandemic
Experiences consolidates these lessons from a range of geographies
and practices. Attard and Mulley bring together leading experts in
the field, examining various entities in their response to the
coronavirus pandemic, using the experience of COVID-19 to inform
issues of resilience and policy. Chapters provide an in-depth
analysis of how the impact of the pandemic varied between
demographic groups and global location, between passenger and
freight modes, highlighting how transport and travel behaviour
changed. Along with providing an overview of policy responses to
the pandemic from the freight and air transport sector, to
analysing the development of working-from-home policies with their
inherent effects on public transport, Transport and Pandemic
Experiences discusses how the accumulated knowledge of the pandemic
needs to be capitalised in our fight against climate change and
helps to identify future research imperatives for better
understanding and greater policy transferability. The Transport and
Sustainability series addresses the important nexus between
transport and sustainability containing volumes dealing with a wide
range of issues relating to transport, its impact in economic,
social, and environmental spheres, and its interaction with other
policy sectors.
