Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are among the most prevalent occupational health issues, particularly affecting public transport drivers due to prolonged sitting, constrained postures, and poorly adaptable cabins. This study addresses the ergonomic risks associated with tram driving, aiming to evaluate biomechanical load and postural stress in relation to drivers’ anthropometric characteristics. A combined methodological approach was applied, integrating two standardized observational tools—RULA and REBA—with anthropometric modeling based on three representatives European morphotypes (SmallW, MidM, and TallM). ErgoFellow 3.0 software was used for digital posture evaluation, and lumbar moments at the L4/L5 vertebral level were calculated to estimate lumbar loading. The analysis was simulation-based, using digital human models, and no real subjects were involved. The results revealed uniform REBA (Rapid Entire Body Assessment) and RULA (Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) scores of 6 across all morphotypes, indicating moderate to high risk and a need for ergonomic intervention. Lumbar moments ranged from 51.35 Nm (SmallW) to 101.67 Nm (TallM), with the tallest model slightly exceeding the recommended ergonomic thresholds. These findings highlight a systemic mismatch between cabin design and user variability. In conclusion, ergonomic improvements such as adjustable seating, better control layout, and driver education are essential to reduce the risk of WMSDs. The study proposes a replicable methodology combining anthropometric, observational, and biomechanical tools for evaluating and improving transport workstation design.

Climate change is an urgent issue, and the current mindset of private ownership, particularly of private vehicles, needs to shift. Shared mobility is rapidly emerging as a key part of the solution to contemporary transportation challenges, driven by technological advancements and the growing demand for more sustainable travel options. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of shared mobility operational models in Europe, focusing on carsharing and its current research on fleet optimization, bikesharing, and scooter sharing. The study draws on three scientific literature databases, with searches centered on keywords relevant to Shared Mobility. This study contributes to the literature by defining each Shared Mobility modality and examining the different operational models.

Urban traffic management faces significant challenges in balancing parking supply with user demand. This study introduces a novel parking demand model that integrates simulation-based pricing with elasticity functions derived from revealed preference data, segmented across predefined user categories, such as short-term visitors (e.g., shoppers) and monthly subscribers (e.g., commuters). Unlike previous models, this approach does not rely on survey-based inputs and explicitly accounts for both natural and chaotic demand behaviors, thereby improving forecasting accuracy under oversaturated conditions. The model supports sustainable parking management by optimizing space availability, while simultaneously increasing occupancy and enhancing revenue generation.

In this paper the emphasis is placed on the vehicle factor from the aspect of roadworthiness. In order to determine whether it is a technically correct or defective vehicle, vehicles are subjected to vehicle technical inspections at vehicle testing centers. There are 161 vehicles testing centers in the Republic of Croatia, and 9 more that deal exclusively with preventive vehicle inspections. The aim of the paper is to optimize the locations of vehicle testing centers in relation to the demand for its service. The methodology of the work is as follows, based on the obtained and available statistics from the Center for Vehicles of Croatia (CVH), an analysis was made according to the requirements for the needs of the vehicles testing center. The paper consists of the following chapters: introduction, review of previous research, methodology, analysis of service requirements at vehicle testing centers, discussion and conclusion with the proposal of measures for optimization of services at vehicle inspection stations.

Quality of service in urban surface transit has a great impact on sustainable urban mobility, with travel time being one of the most important indicators of service reliability. But urban surface transit is prone to many disturbance factors causing travel time discrepancy and variability, making transit less reliable for passengers. We conducted research in the City of Zagreb on a single tram line by splitting it into constant-frequency segments. The first phase was modeling minimum segment travel times to base the indicators and predictors upon, and the second phase was establishing correlation matrices between the predictors and travel time using Pearson correlation coefficients and significance. Variance inflation factors were used to check for collinearities. While predictors belonging to the transport supply irregularity group did not have an impact, the ones belonging to the disturbance factors group showed correlation, with six of them being significant. This research in rarely represented tram transit determined the most significant disturbance factors rich in traffic context that can be used to develop travel time prediction models.

Because there are fewer available urban spaces and more cars on the road, parking is becoming an increasingly important component of urban design. The sustainability of urban transportation and traffic flows can be greatly impacted by parking management. By using zonal parking as a parking policy measure, the city of Velika Gorica has arranged parking in its region. The parking system was examined in detail. Citizens were surveyed to find out what they thought of the parking system. Public unhappiness with the current parking system was shown by the analysis, which indicated that pricing adjustments and the provision of preferred parking permits were necessary. In areas with high demand, parking capacity must be increased. Using a collaborative approach to address parking issues can enhance traffic regulations and lead to more space for sustainable modes of transportation and pedestrian zones.
