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.'
