Universal or local preferences? The perceived importance of the urban environment on active travel behaviour in Europe across populations
Research shows that the urban environment is a major determinant of active travel behaviour. However, it remains unclear to what extent its importance across socio-demographic groups is universal or altered by local city-specific contexts. In this study, we used a large survey sample with almost 5000 respondents from five European metropolitan areas – Helsinki, Copenhagen, London, Munich and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria – to study how travel behavi…
Spatial Integration or Isolation? Capturing the Rhythms of Daily Lives Across Neighbourhoods in Helsinki Using Mobile Phone Data
People's exposure to various social and spatial contexts over time leads to patterns of spatial integration and segregation. While the study of spatial integration has predominantly focused on the location and context of residential neighbourhoods, the emerging activity space approach to segregation argues that it is important to consider people's actual activity locations and mobility. This study builds on both approaches, to provide insights in…
Restoring nature, enhancing active mobility
This article argues for the importance of integrating a mobility perspective into urban greenspace planning and practice related to the 2024 EU Nature Restoration Law. Street greenery can play an important multifunctional role in promoting ecosystem services and functions, sustainable mobility, and human health and well-being. However, planners need more evidence on how street vegetation affects health and well-being during everyday active mobili…
Segregation and the pandemic
In this study, we set out to understand how the changes in daily mobility of people during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in spring 2020 influenced daytime spatial segregation. Rather than focusing on spatial separation, we approached this task from the perspective of daytime socio-spatial diversity - the degree to which people from socially different neighbourhoods share urban space during the day. By applying mobile phone data from Gre…
Ethnic differences in activity spaces as a characteristic of segregation
Given ongoing developments altering social and spatial cohesion in urban societies, a more comprehensive understanding of segregation is needed. Taking the ‘mobilities turn’ at heart, we move beyond place-based segregation approaches and focus on the practised urban experiences of individuals through a more comprehensive assessment of their activity spaces. This study contributes to people-based segregation research by mapping the activity spaces…
