Transit Safety for a Sustainable City: People, Paths and Places in Railway Stations

Vania Ceccato - Personal Name; Catherine Sundling - Personal Name; Gabriel Gliori - Personal Name;

This book examines the relationship between transit safety, railway station environments, and sustainable urban development. It explores how the physical design of railway stations, surrounding neighborhoods, socioeconomic conditions, and station management influence passengers’ safety and perceptions of security. Drawing on a case study in Sweden, the book employs a systems-thinking approach and mixed-methods research, including field inspections, official crime data, surveys, interviews, geographic information systems (GIS), and statistical analysis. It investigates crime and victimization patterns, differences in safety perceptions across demographic groups, and the experiences of vulnerable passengers, including women, people with disabilities, and LGBTQI+ individuals. The book also discusses the importance of lighting, surveillance, maintenance, accessibility, inclusive station design, and effective governance in creating safer public transport environments. Furthermore, it examines how railway stations can contribute to sustainable and inclusive cities by improving accessibility, encouraging public transport use, and supporting social equity. The findings provide practical recommendations for railway operators, urban planners, policymakers, and researchers seeking to develop safer, more accessible, and sustainable transportation systems.
