As global visitation to PAs (Protected Areas) nears record highs, the Island Model of car-centric governance has become a primary culprit of ecological degradation and social marginalization. This review follows changes in transportation in PAs from early scenic drive glimpses in the aesthetics of nature, through the overwhelmed shock of COVID and over-tourism, to coauthoring a new management a... more

Mobility networks worldwide face escalating challenges from climate-induced environmental shifts and major disruptions such as the global COVID-19 pandemic. This scoping review investigates the resilience of public transport systems through a structured 4R framework—robustness (strength), redundancy (alternatives), resourcefulness (ingenuity), and rapidity (speed). The analysis draws on four di... more

Electric vehicles are progressively being employed for ecological transportation in green environments, thereby preserving eco-friendly biodiversity and ecosystems. The involved energy storage batteries are a crucial item of green mobility. The storage capacity state is intensely allied to the interconnection with energy supplies and charging methodologies, as well as the involved complexity. I... more

Manual toll collection systems exacerbate traffic congestion, economic inefficiency, and environmental pollution, particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions. Several technologies were introduced over the years to address problems associated with manual toll collection. Despite these developments, challenges remain in making the toll collection system more efficient. This study therefore present... more

India’s Net-Zero commitment, announced at the COP26 held in Glasgow, underscores the critical role of urban transport in achieving long-term climate goals. This paper examines the adequacy of existing transport policies and programmes at both macro (national and state) and city levels in advancing Net-Zero readiness. This paper critiques the conventional Avoid–Shift–Improve framework and introd... more
