Journal of Transport & Health

Journal of Transport & Health is a hybrid journal devoted to research on the interactions between transport and health and the policies that affect them. It prioritizes studies that evaluate or inform interventions and policies to improve population health or make genuinely original contributions, with an international and multidisciplinary readership. The journal covers topics including active transport, transport-related noise and air pollution, road travel injuries, transport choices, sustainability and health impacts, economic and health impact assessments, methodological advances, and policies that promote or discourage healthy and sustainable transport systems and communities.
