abstract: 'This paper explores the conditions of public transport with respect to
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
user accessibility, design of infrastructure, and safety from a gendered
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
perspective. Our investigation aims to understand the factors that
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
direct a citizen''s choice of whether or not to use public transport. Our
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
discussion is focused on gender disparities among user experiences, so
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
we confine our focus to that of women''s perspectives and their
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
experiences with public transport use. A framework for our discussion
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
was formed with consideration of the theoretical aspects of fairness,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
justice, and gender in transport, as well as user statistics. We
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
identified several spaces where public transport policy planning and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
implementation may be improved in order to balance gender disparity of
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
access, safety, and security across the gender divide. (We acknowledge
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
that both distinct and interchangeable definitions of safety and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
security exist. In this work, we err to the latter, while also
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
recognising from user-based qualitative data that safety concerns are
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
not limited to infrastructure, but also relate to other unwanted sources
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
of physical, mental, or emotional harm experienced within the transport
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
system.) Primary among these was the necessity of both the
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
acknowledgment and appreciation of the issues disproportionately
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
experienced by women. A one-size-fits-all approach was found to
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ill-recognise the societal minutiae of constant caring responsibilities,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
income limitations, ability/disability, or the effects of past negative
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
experiences faced by women. We conclude that improvements may be
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
achieved by targeting and meeting actual, not just perceived need.'
