Project: Vietnam’s Mobility Transition: The Impact of Transport Changes on Accessibility and Urban Life in Ho Chi Minh City
This study investigates Vietnam’s evolving transportation landscape, including the impact of rising car ownership and new mass transit systems on traditional motorbike mobility. The research will analyze accessibility shifts, economic effects on home-based businesses and street vendors, and the role of digital platforms such as food delivery apps. Findings will be featured in a forthcoming book manuscript, The Image of Mobility: Views from the Streets of Ho Chi Minh City, with a proposal submission to MIT Press planned for Fall 2025.
