(author), Wagenaar, Cor (author)Physical activity is good for people’s health. The relationship between the built environment and physical activity has been well documented. However, evidence is both scarce and scattered on specific urban interventions, i.e., intentional redesigns of the built environment that promote physical activity accompanied by pre- and post-effect...review 2022

Stam, Bas (author), van Oort, N. (author), van Strijp-Harms, Hilke J. (author), van der Spek, S.C. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)First/last mile transport is essential for transit but is often found to be the weakest link in a trip. Moreover, as a result of multiple developments (e.g. demographic shifts, urbanization, climate change, technology advancement) first/last mile transport will likely change rapidly. The literature review of this study shows six different...journal article 2021

van Langelaar, CM (author), van der Spek, S.C. (author)There are basically two kinds of city centres: historic and modern. Historic city centres, built in an era when no cars existed, tend to be very walkable environments. Modern cities, however, are much more car-dominated, leading to a less attractive walking environment. Rotterdam is one of the four main cities in the Netherlands and its historic...book chapter 2016

Ranacher, P. (author), Brunauer, R. (author), van der Spek, S.C. (author), Reich, S (author)Floating car data (FCD) recorded with the Global Positioning System (GPS) are an important data source for traffic research. However, FCD are subject to error, which can relate either to the accuracy of the recordings (measurement error) or to the temporal rate at which the data are sampled (interpolation error). Both errors affect movement...journal article 2016
