Application of the Pareto Principle in the Analysis of Causes of Road Accidents in Poland

Piotr Gorzelanczyk

May 2026: 1-11 DOI: 10.55121/tdr.v4i1.988

328 (Abstract) 621 (Download) PDF

The article aims to apply the Pareto principle in the analysis of the causes of road accidents in Poland in 2018–2024. Analysis of data from the National Road Safety Council showed a clear decrease in the number of accidents and related fatalities and injuries during the period under review, with particular emphasis on the years of the COVID-19 pandemic, when traffic restrictions contributed to a ... more

A Composite Geospatial Index for Road Safety Risk: Integrating Crash Data with Roadway Characteristics

Siqing Chen

May 2026: 12-27 DOI: 10.55121/tdr.v4i1.1024

436 (Abstract) 376 (Download) PDF

Road traffic accidents pose significant threats to public safety and urban infrastructure. While effective safety management is a critical component of sustainable transportation planning and public health, traditional approaches often rely heavily on identifying historical crash hotspots. These reactive methods frequently fail to account for the intrinsic environmental risk factors or overlook se... more

Superelevation of Road Curves: Influence on Vehicles Fuel Consumption

Alex Coiret, Pierre-Olivier Vandanjon

May 2026: 27-39 DOI: 10.55121/tdr.v4i1.1052

292 (Abstract) 245 (Download) PDF

Transport systems are primarily designed to address mobility and safety concerns. Today, energy consumption must also be taken into account in infrastructure design and operation, as environmental issues and tensions in oil production continue to intensify. For road transport, infrastructure requires energy for its construction, maintenance, and use. During the use phase, previous studies have ass... more

Inclusive Net-Zero Framework for Assessing Urban Transport Policies and Programmes—Case of India

Darshini Mahadevia, Saumya Lathia, Talat Munshi

May 2026: 40-63 DOI: 10.55121/tdr.v4i1.1011

527 (Abstract) 283 (Download) PDF

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 introduce... more

Design and Implementation of an Automated Toll Collection System

Moses Kwasi Torkudzor, Stephen Andoh Baffoe, Gabriel Senyah, Micheal Gyamfi Opoku, Yitzak Ofori, Patrick Atsu Agbemabiese

May 2026: 64-77 DOI: 10.55121/tdr.v4i1.1139

390 (Abstract) 503 (Download) PDF

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 presents t... more

Sustainable Management of Energy, Storage, and Wireless Transfer in Electric Vehicles Operating in an Ecological Environment

Adel Razek

May 2026: 78-89 DOI: 10.55121/tdr.v4i1.1185

417 (Abstract) 230 (Download) PDF

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. In a... more

Insights Gained from Weather Extremes and Health Crises in Strengthening Mass Transit Durability

Anshul Jain, Hridayesh Varma

May 2026: 90-108 DOI: 10.55121/tdr.v4i1.1072

325 (Abstract) 196 (Download) PDF

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 diver... more

Mobilizing Landscapes: Integrating Transportation Networks in Recreational Planning and Protected Area Governance

Daniel Etim Jacob, Imaobong Daniel Jacob, Koko Sunday Daniel, Angela Ngozi Okeke, Gideon Efiakedoho

May 2026: 109-134 DOI: 10.55121/tdr.v4i1.1162

294 (Abstract) 232 (Download) PDF

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 appr... more
