Description:
Studies relate the built environment and travel behavior including commuting, commuting satisfaction, private car ownership, active walking, telecommute, use of public transit, etc. During the last decades of continuing urbanization, smart growth proponents promoted monitoring of urban sprawl (Zarro et al., 2022). The policies of densification, walkability and transit-oriented development have been promoted to improve sustainability of urban development, reduce carbon emissions and other positive effects (Sisson, 2022). However, many US metro areas experience unsustainable urban sprawl with the travel implications including increased share of private car us, decreased usage of public transit, walking, and biking. Further, there is a concern that the COVID-19 pandemic promoted urban sprawl as people moved out of denser metropolitan areas to smaller cities, suburban and outlying exurban neighborhoods, while there was a decrease in people moving into central cities (Peiser and Hugel, 2022).
