In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Edinburgh Napier University’s Transport Research Institute has been undertaking a study, funded by the Scottish Funding Council (SFC), into its impact on transport and travel in Scotland. As part of this research... Read More about DATASET: The impact of Covid-19 on travel behaviour, transport, lifestyles and residential location choices in Scotland.

Use of ubiquitous real-time bus passenger information (2019)
Journal Article
Islam, M. F., Fonzone, A., MacIver, A., & Dickinson, K. (2020). Use of ubiquitous real-time bus passenger information. IET Intelligent Transport Systems, 14(3), 139-147. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-its.2019.0324

Ubiquitous real-time passenger information (URTPI) enhances the perceived quality of service of public transport and enables travellers to make better pre-trip and en-route travel choices. The paper presents an exploratory study of the use of URTPI.... Read More about Use of ubiquitous real-time bus passenger information.

Transferred versus local Safety Performance Functions: A geographical analysis considering two European case studies (2019)
Journal Article
Intini, P., Berloco, N., Binetti, R., Fonzone, A., Ranieri, V., & Colonna, P. (2019). Transferred versus local Safety Performance Functions: A geographical analysis considering two European case studies. Safety Science, 120, 906-921. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ssci.2019.08.013

Two main approaches can be used to predict road accidents: transferring existing Safety Performance Functions (SPFs) from other areas (transferred SPFs), and developing local SPFs. Both approaches have advantages and disadvantages, and are affected b...

Influences on urban freight transport policy choice by local authorities (2019)
Journal Article
Akgün, E. Z., Monios, J., Rye, T., & Fonzone, A. (2019). Influences on urban freight transport policy choice by local authorities. Transport Policy, 75, 88-98. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tranpol.2019.01.009

Individual freight transport policies have been investigated in the literature extensively in the last 10–15 years, yet there has surprisingly been very little attention to the process of selecting urban freight transport (UFT) policy measures. This... Read More about Influences on urban freight transport policy choice by local authorities.

Recovery time and propagation effects of passenger transport disruptions (2018)
Journal Article
Malandri, C., Malandria, C., Fonzone, A., & Cats, O. (2018). Recovery time and propagation effects of passenger transport disruptions. Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 505, 7-17. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physa.2018.03.028

We propose a method to evaluate public transport network vulnerability. We study the evolution of the passenger Volume Over Capacity (VOC) ratio throughout the network to measure the spatial and temporal extent of the impacts caused by an unplanned s...

Better for everyone: an approach to multimodal network design considering equity. (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Camporeale, R., Caggiani, L., Fonzone, A., & Ottomanelli, M. (2016, June). Better for everyone: an approach to multimodal network design considering equity. Presented at International Scientific Conference on Mobility and Transport, Munich, Germany

We propose a formulation of the Network Design Problem (NDP) to support transport planners in dealing with multimodal networks in contexts characterised by different (and sometimes conflicting) interests and limited resources in a transparent way. We... Read More about Better for everyone: an approach to multimodal network design considering equity..

Quantifying the impacts of horizontal and vertical equity in transit route planning. (2016)
Journal Article
Camporeale, R., Caggiani, L., Fonzone, A., & Ottomanelli, M. (2017). Quantifying the impacts of horizontal and vertical equity in transit route planning. Transportation Planning and Technology, 40(1), 28-44. https://doi.org/10.1080/03081060.2016.1238569

Equity refers to a fair sharing of costs or resources. Horizontal equity concerns distribution among individuals or groups with the same necessities, whereas vertical equity should be considered in situations with different levels of needs. This pape...

Capturing the conditions that introduce systematic variation in bike-sharing travel behavior using data mining techniques (2016)
Journal Article

A model of bus bunching under reliability-based passenger arrival patterns. (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fonzone, A., Schmöcker, J.-D., & Liu, R. (2015, August). A model of bus bunching under reliability-based passenger arrival patterns. Presented at 21st International Symposium on Transportation and Traffic Theory, Kobe, Japan

If bus service departure times are not completely unknown to the passengers, non-uniform passenger arrival patterns can be expected. We propose that passengers decide their arrival time at stops based on a continuous logit model that considers the ri...
