Linking urban transport and land use in developing countries (2013, background): “Studies inTaipei and Hong Kong have similarly found street designs to more strongly affect walking than factors like high densities and mixed land uses (which are commonplace in both cities) (Lin and Yang 2009; Zhang 2004).”
Factors influencing modal split of commuting journeys in medium-size European cities (2013, background): “Kitamura (2009) Paulley et al.

Accessibility in Cities: Transport and Urban Form (2017, background): “…neighbourhoods and fine-grain street design are related and important predictors for the use of active travel modes such as walking and cycling (Zhang 2004; Khattak and Rodriguez 2005; Cervero, Sarmiento et al. 2009; Lin and Yang 2009; Lotfi and Koohsari 2011), with a recent study of US cities…”
Parking facilities and the built environment: Impacts on travel behaviour (2017, background): “Travel behaviour in urban areas is determined by people’s daily activities, spatial organisation and the built environment (Cervero and Duncan, 2006; Krizek, 2003; Naess, 2011, 2012; Næss, 2005, 2006; Zhang, 2004; Miller and Ibrahim, 1998; Krizek, 2003; Zhang, 2004; Cervero and Duncan, 2006).”
What determines rail transit passenger volume? Implications for Transit oriented development planning (2017, background): “Zhang (2004) studies the influence of land use on travel mode in Boston and Hong Kong.”
Neighborhoods, Cars, and Commuting in New York City: A Discrete Choice Approach (2008, methodology): “Using his mode choice only model, Zhang (2004) finds that the population density elasticity of car use is 0.044 in Boston and 0.039 in Hong Kong, and Schimek (1996) finds this elasticity to be 0.069.”
Part II: Policy instruments for sustainable road transport (2010, background): “These policies together complement each other as an effective combination in limiting the growth of car use in Hong Kong (Zhang, 2004).”
The paradox of intensification (2011, background): “Zhang (2004) estimated probability-weighted average elasticities for mode choice in Boston and Hong Kong.”
Satisfaction with the commute: The role of travel mode choice, built environment and attitudes (2017, background): “…streets, and high transit and job accessibility at both home (Cervero and Kockelman, 1997; Ewing and Cervero, 2010; Handy et al., 2005) and job locations (Chatman, 2003; Chen et al., 2008; Ding et al., 2014; Zhang, 2004), are associated with less car use and more active travel and transit use.”
