Evaluating equity and accessibility to jobs by public transport across Canada (2018, background): “Starting with Hansen (1959) (and somewhat later Wickstrom (1971), Ingram (1971) and Dalvi and Martin (1976), among others), a growing body of literature has been continuously refining the concept of accessibility (El-Geneidy and Levinson, 2006; El-Geneidy et al., 2016; Geurs and van Wee, 2004; Levin”
Distributional effects of transport policies on inequalities in access to opportunities in Rio de Janeiro (2019, background): “It is widely documented in the literature how transport disadvantages related to these issues can hinder one’s ability to use public transportation (Casas, 2007; El-Geneidy et al., 2016; Rya, Wretstrand, & Schmidt, 2015).”
Future accessibility impacts of transport policy scenarios: Equity and sensitivity to travel time thresholds for Bus Rapid Transit expansion in Rio de Janeiro (2019, neutral): “Previous studies have shown that people’s ability to use public transportation and hence their accessibility levels are dependent on affordability (El-Geneidy et al., 2016), disability”
