... The majority of carpooling literature has focused on Global North contexts, with higher motorization rates and low dependency on public transit (see Table 1). However, in the Global South, studies exploring the determinants of carpooling intention are scarce, despite the lower vehicle ownership rates, poor quality of public transit services, and high dependency on these services that characterize these urban environments (Cervero and Golub, 2007;Gadepalli et al., 2018;Golub, 2003;Olvera et al., 2012). The findings of both Pinto et al. (2019) in Lavras et al. (2017) in Lahore, Pakistan (two Global South environments) reveal that there is competition between carpooling programs and public transit and a trending modal shift from public transit to the private car and carpooling modalities. ...

... Generally, land use models attempt to project future land use patterns based on historical trends, however, could potentially lead to biases or inaccuracies in the resulting land use and travel demand forecasts (Lemp et al., 2008). Because of this deficiency, scenario-based planning is increasingly applied since the late 1980s (Hickman et al., 2012;Jantz et al., 2004;Layman and Horner, 2010;Outwater et al., 2014;Shiftan et al., 2003;Waddell, 2011;Waddell, 2002;Wei et al., 2017). In a land use-transportation scenario planning, a set of land use scenarios that have certain probabilities of developing in the future or that are desired by planners is constructed first. ...

... Regarding the built environment's influence on transfer, researchers typically adopt the "5D principle", which includes density, diversity, design, distance to transit, and destination accessibility [20,21]. For example, existing studies [22] have found that high population and employment densities significantly promote cycling, while other research [23] has noted that different land use densities have varying effects on bike-metro transfer trips. ...

... The expected impact is a sustainable improvement in the quality of urban space in the aspects of economy, society, and the environment. Ibraeva et al. show that TOD-based transportation is the core concept of sustainability and unites integrated and walk-able communities with high-quality rail systems (Cervero et al., 2017;Ibraeva et al., 2022). This concept creates a low-carbon lifestyle by enabling people to live, work, and play without relying on cars for mobility (Ibraeva et al., 2020). ...

... Urban transportation, i.e., the act of moving something (goods) or someone (people), and urban mobility, i.e., the ability of a person to freely move or be moved, constitute integral elements of the functional dimension of cities nowadays. Alongside other significant factors such as land use and urban planning, urban mobility plays a crucial role in shaping how citizens carry out their daily activities [1]. ...

... The concept of green technology encompasses a wide range of innovations, including renewable energy systems, sustainable materials, energyefficient designs, and waste reduction techniques. For instance, the use of solar panels in building designs, permeable pavements in road construction, and green roofs in urban planning are all examples of how green technology can be applied in civil engineering to create more sustainable urban environments [8]. The integration of green technology into civil engineering is not without its challenges. ...

... We controlled for built environment characteristics. Research on the so-called "Five Ds"-density, diversity, design, destination accessibility, and distance to transitsuggests that the built environment can affect people's travel behavior, although the extent of this influence remains a source of debate (Ewing & Cervero 2017, 2010Stevens, 2017). We measured built environment attributes using neighborhood typology data developed by Voulgaris et al. (2017). ...

... Az olyan radikális intézkedések, mint például az autópályák eltávolítása és az autópályák által elfoglalt belvárosi területek átalakítása zöldúttá, gazdasági előnyt jelentenek Szöul és más nagyvárosok számára is, amit legszemléletesebben a telekárak emelkedése és a cégösszetétel változása mutat. A 2000-es évek elején Szöul városrehabilitációs programot indított el, amely magában foglalta az utak és autópályák által elfoglalt városi tér visszahódítását, különös tekintettel az újonnan épített városrészek lakói számára épült bekötőutak felszámolására és helyettesítő infrastruktúra építésére (Cervero 2010). ...

... More broadly, TOD has helped to enhance urban sustainability agendas through city boosterism and place-making, helping to improve the reputation and aesthetic values of cities (Ferbrache and Knowles, 2017). It has also been linked to social goals including increased ridership levels, formation of civic and public spaces, and in itself is a hub for community development (Bernick and Cervero, 1997;Cervero, 2010). However, there is some evidence of TOD unintentionally increasing levels of economic segregation and leading to gentrification, as it usually increases land and property values which can displace poorer residents and lower-income economic activities (Rayle, 2015). ...
