Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning During the Covid-19 Pandemic: Barriers and Opportunities from Public Authorities' Perspective
Whilst there is research on how Covid-19 impacted travel demand and transport business, little attention has been paid on how Covid-19 has affected transport planning priorities and policy making. Against this background, this paper attempts to shed light on two research questions: a) how transport planning priorities have changed after Covid-19 outbreak; b) How can the planning phases be strengthened to support a more resilient planning environment? To address these questions, an online survey was designed, examining Covid-19 effects on transport planning. The results of the survey revealed that planning objectives were significantly different in the period after Covid-19 outbreak compared to the period before that. Moreover, it was shown that most of the actions adopted to accommodate the prioritized planning objectives were already defined before Covid-19, indicating that the pandemic has acted as an accelerator of specific existing planning objectives.
