Abstract:

Urban residents spend a considerable amount of outdoor time in transportation microenvironments as pedestrians, bicycle commuters, public transit users, residents and workers situated along roadways, and commuters within vehicles. Within these transportation microenvironments, vehicles powered by carbon-based fuels (e.g. gasoline, diesel) have a negative impact on air quality. An emerging area of research has shown that human health impacts within transport microenvironments can be considerable, but exposure concentrations and built environment impacts have not been well characterized. As urban public policies increasingly encourage the use of multi-modal travel in dense urban centers, mitigation strategies to lower urban residents’ exposure to traffic-related pollution need to be assessed.
