Motorcycles as a Full Mode of Transportation (2002)
Journal Article
Wigan, M. (2002). Motorcycles as a Full Mode of Transportation. Transportation research record, 1818(1), 39-46. https://doi.org/10.3141/1818-06

Motorcycles usually are treated solely on the basis of their safety characteristics and very rarely as a mode of transportation with benefits and costs, placing safety issues in a full transportation context. The standard transportation issues of tra... Read More about Motorcycles as a Full Mode of Transportation.

Enabling and Managing Greater Access to Transport Data Through Metadata (2002)
Journal Article
Wigan, M., Grieco, M., & Mine, J. (2002). Enabling and Managing Greater Access to Transport Data Through Metadata. Transportation research record, 1804, 48-55. https://doi.org/10.3141/1804-07

MetadatA—information about data sets—allow clear understanding of exactly what the elements and structure of a given data set entail. Metadata in conjunction with XML-based specifications, schemas, and tools allow a high level of automated and valida...

Agent-based modelling of pedestrian movements: the questions that need to be asked and answered. (2001)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J., Hine, J., & Wigan, M. (2001). Agent-based modelling of pedestrian movements: the questions that need to be asked and answered. Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 28(3), 327-341. https://doi.org/10.1068/b2696

Vulnerable road users have steadily attracted increased importance in transport and planning. The behaviour of pedestrian movements (especially in the areas off but adjacent to roads) requires improved tools to address the issues now being raised. Su...

Valuing long haul and metropolitan freight travel time and reliability. (2000)
Journal Article
Wigan, M., Rockcliffe, N., Thoresen, T., & Tsolakis, D. (2000). Valuing long haul and metropolitan freight travel time and reliability. Journal of transportation and statistics, 3,

Most evaluations and economic assessments of transport proposals and policies in Australia omit a valuation of the time spent in transit for individual items or loads of freight. Knowing about delays, and indeed the practical value of reliability... Read More about Valuing long haul and metropolitan freight travel time and reliability..
