2. 1. Steering green buses : The opportunities and challenges of introducing renewable fuel in public transport

   Author : Malin Aldenius; Miljö- och energisystem; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Public transport; Renewable fuel; Electric buses; Sustainable transport; Green public procurement; Environmental requirements;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to compare and analyse the introduction of renewable fuel in the public transport sector, focusing on the challenges and opportunities encountered by involved stakeholders on the regional and local levels. The results contribute to answering three research questions: 1) How do organisational factors and local and regional contextual factors influence the introduction of renewable fuel? 2) What are the challenges and opportunities of using green public procurement as a policy tool to introduce renewable fuel in the public transport sector? 3) How do the challenges and opportunities regarding the introduction of renewable fuel differ depending on the type of renewable fuel? Four papers are included in the thesis. READ MORE

4. 2. Construction transport efficiency from the perspective of Main Contractor and Transporter

   Author : Farah Naz; Anna Fredriksson; Linea Kjellsdotter Ivert; Johan Woxenius; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction transport efficiency; Performance measures; Construction logistics management; Case study;

   Abstract : Transport efficiency within construction is low. One reason behind the lack of efficiency within the construction transport is the lack of proper logistics management that in turn results in problems of delivery reliability, material flows as well as material availability. READ MORE

5. 3. Public transport meets smart mobility : Roles and relationships shaping driverless shuttles and MaaS

   Author : Kelsey Oldbury; Karolina Isaksson; Christina Lindkvist; Sara Brorström; KTH; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Smart mobility; public transport; governance; planning; Mobility as a Service; driverless shuttles; Urbana och regionala studier; Urban and Regional Studies;

   Abstract : This licentiate thesis investigates the development of two aspects of smart mobility, driverless shuttles and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) in relation to public transport. Smart mobility has emerged as a term to describe and label a group of changes unfolding in the transport sector, such as the role out of automated vehicles, electrification, the spread of platforms and new types of shared services,as well as new concepts to integrate multiple forms of mobility, often referred toas Mobility as a Service (or MaaS).

6. 4. Managing knowledge sharing of extreme weather induced impacts on land transport infrastructure : Case study of the Swedish Transport Administration

   Author : Monika Rydstedt Nyman; Lars Nyberg; Magnus Johansson; Eva Liljegren; Peter Söderholm; Karlstads universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lessons learned; risk management; climate change adaptation; accident investigation method; extreme weather events; natural hazard; land transport infrastructure; maintenance; lärande; kunskapsåterföring; risk hantering; klimatanpassning; olycksutredningsmetod; naturolyckor; landtransport infrastruktur; underhåll; Risk and Environmental Studies; Risk- och Miljöstudier;

   Abstract : Extreme weather events and effects of climate change are threats to the transport sector’s functionality and safety. Risk management in this context implies a necessity to focus on the connection between near-term experiences and coping strategies on one hand, and long-term adaptation analyses on the other.
