I had the opportunity to present our recent work on the geography of inequalities of access to healthcare across English — specifically how the idea of bus travel time variability shapes the inequality of accessibility. arxiv.org/abs/2501.19231

Last Friday we hosted Rethinking Accessibility: Insights from Transport Data Science — a one-day workshop bringing together researchers, policymakers & practitioners to explore transport data & accessibility. Thanks to @UniExeterIDSAI for sponsoring and everyone who joined!

@StagecoachSW No problem at all

@zihao_chen_ Hi Zihao - Thank you for letting us know. We'll pass this to the Exeter team to get the sign removed. J

Looks like this @StagecoachSW bus in Exeter is making a bold move to join the @BeeNetwork… Just a 200-mile detour to Manchester. Hope the £2/3 single fare covers that!

@StagecoachSW There you go

@zihao_chen_ Hello, Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Could you kindly provide your journey information so we can report this across to have this removed? DM us if you would prefer. -KP

Devon Metro 👍

📢 New pre-print alert! We examine the geography of inequalities in access to healthcare across England from the dynamic perspective of bus travel time variability (TTV). arxiv.org/abs/2501.19231 #HealthcareAccess #Inequality #TravelTimeVariability #TransportDataScience

It’s not every day one gets to catch a Great Western Railway @GWRHelp train to the West Country from the great Euston @NetworkRailEUS !! Really strange to see destinations in the Midlands and the North sharing the same departure board as places like Penzance, Plymouth and Wales.

Back on the Hidden London adventures this weekend with a tour of some disused tunnels under Euston station. This poster from one of the subways closed in the 1960s sums up today’s rail travel very well! 🙄

The £2 bus fare cap was absolutely the best thing the last government ever did. For Labour to come in and immediately scrap it would show a complete lack of empathy for working people and rural areas. Bus fares on the island would likely double at least. 1/2

Map on my slide is the brilliant work done by @friends_earth and Uni of Leeds.

Very pleased to have presented some preliminary findings on my PhD work on bus travel time variability at the @CuspLondon PhD conference. Looking forward to hearing all the interesting talks!

@Djmackin1 Thanks!

@zihao_chen_ An excellent achievement, well done

Honoured and humbled to have received this award. Huge thanks to the organisers and everyone who supported the work!

@gmauro_10 @NicolaPedreschi @lucpappalard @RenaudLambiotte Congratulations - well deserved!

What a blast! So grateful for this award. Huge thanks to @NicolaPedreschi @lucpappalard @RenaudLambiotte arXiv out soon, it’s a promise.

@Fede_Botta Thank you!

Well done Zihao!

Very pleased to have presented my poster on our preliminary work on bus travel time variability in the UK using @busopendata at #CCS2024 @ConfCompSys. Appreciate all the feedback received.

Ending Day 3 of #CCS2024 @ConfCompSys with a very insightful panel discussion on academic publication featuring @Fede_Botta @chpoletto @RuiqiLii

Kicking off #urbansys2024 @ConfCompSys with a keynote speech from @CarmenCabArn. Fascinating talk on digital trace data with an even better ending featuring Liverpool’s formerly UNESCO listed waterfront (yes I have an unhealthy obsession with Liverpool).

Here for the week! #ccs2024
