Abstract

Project description This research focuses on the economic and logistical consequences of the 1.5 meter society for the mobility of people. This involves looking at various phasing-out scenarios for corona measures that are possible and obvious for the transport sector with social distancing. Examples include combinations of keeping a distance, reorganizing the public road, individual measures such as face masks, and collective protective measures such as transparent partitioning in public transport and airplanes. The study focuses on aviation, the road network, public transport, cycling and walking. Among other things, the researchers compile an overview of phasing out scenarios and policy measures that are being implemented and proposed in other countries. Promising options are selected for the Dutch context together with Dutch policymakers. These options are then assessed by the Dutch population in a Participative Value Evaluation. This project is carried out by TU Delft and VU University Amsterdam.
