Research Fellow in Transport

Post Summary The project aims to empower communities to adopt more sustainable modes of mobility by demonstrating how shared low-carbon transportation can plug the gap when high frequency public transport might not be available. As well as addressing carbon reduction targets, shared mobility could support community wealth building through the development of novel initiatives that address a community need and reconnect people to their place and each other, contributing to addressing the challenge of isolation that many more vulnerable communities feel post-Covid. The researcher on this project will work in a multi-disciplinary team looking at the impacts of mobility in small towns. This researcher will collect data using sensors and examine this data for trends. The researcher will also conduct GIS analysis using existing and new datasets.
