We begin this chapter by presenting and critically looking back at the key findings from the Swedish case study, examining patterns of victimisation and safety perceptions, the influence of the station’s urban–rural contexts on people's safety perceptions, temporal variations in transit safety, and the specific safety needs of different traveller groups. We then propose a series of recommendations as 'leverage points' to enhance transit safety while identifying the barriers hindering their implementation. Finally, we discuss these challenges and how they can create opportunities for action by adopting a systems-thinking perspetive. The Swedish example calls for a comprehensive, evidence-based, user-engaged approach to improve transit safety–an approach that can be adapted, improved and rethought to include the specific contexts of other countries.

摘要

We begin this chapter by presenting and critically looking back at the key findings from the Swedish case study, examining patterns of victimisation and safety perceptions, the influence of the station’s urban–rural contexts on people's safety perceptions, temporal variations in transit safety, and the specific safety needs of different traveller groups. We then propose a series of recommendations as 'leverage points' to enhance transit safety while identifying the barriers hindering their implementation. Finally, we discuss these challenges and how they can create opportunities for action by adopting a systems-thinking perspetive. The Swedish example calls for a comprehensive, evidence-based, user-engaged approach to improve transit safety–an approach that can be adapted, improved and rethought to include the specific contexts of other countries.
