  • To Crash on the Bus (Or Sit on Needles and Pins)? – Buses and Subways in Teenage Everyday Geographies
    To crash on the bus (or sit on needles and pins)? – buses and subways in teenage everyday geographies MAJA LAGERQVIST Lagerqvist, M. (2019) To crash on the bus (or sit on needles and pins?) – buses and subways in teenage everyday geographies. Fennia 197(2) 280–294. https://doi.org/10.11143/fennia.83665 When young people travel, they are often very dependent on public transport or parents. This study uses interviews with 16– 19 years old teenagers in Stockholm to investigate their everyday experiences of public transit. The paper explores the experiences of buses and subways, here conceptualized as mobile places, to understand how they shape teenagers’ daily life. Understanding teenagers’ experiences of public transportation is part of understanding their everyday life, struggles, and possibilities to be mobile and participate in society. It is also a step towards ensuring that they find public transportation inclusive, safe, and worth traveling with today and in the future. Conceptually, the analysis focuses on how these mobile places are experienced as providing weights or reliefs to the everyday and if, how and when they may be places of interaction or retreat, addressing two needs in teenagers’ personal being and development. The study shows how various experiences of traveling with buses and subways shape how the teenagers feel, and how they make strategic choices in relation to this. A quite manifold, varying, and complex picture of public transportation arises, with stories of wellbeing, comfort, discomfort, and exclusion, and with sharp differences between girls and boys, and between buses and subways. These nuances are essential in planning and evaluation of transport systems in regard to how, when, where, or for whom public transport can be a part of social sustainability, as public policies often assume.

In order to meet Sweden's climate goals it is necessary that new materials, technologies and working methods continue to evolve. Knowledge, cooperation and communication are described as important elements in order to develop the work towards increased sustainability in the construction sector in Sweden.

  • Wildlife and Roads in Sweden
    The toll of the automobile: Wildlife and roads in Sweden Andreas Seiler Department of Conservation Biology Uppsala Doctoral thesis Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Uppsala 2003 Acta Universitatis Agriculturae Sueciae Silvestria 295 ISSN 1401-6230 ISBN 91-576-6529-X © 2003 Andreas Seiler, Uppsala Tryck: SLU Service/Repro, Uppsala 2003 2 Abstract Seiler, A. 2003. The toll of the automobile: Wildlife and roads in Sweden. Doctor’s dissertation. ISSN 1401-6230, ISBN 91-576-6529-X Animal-vehicle collisions are a common phenomenon worldwide, causing injury or death to millions of animals and hundreds of human passengers each year. Collision numbers can be significant to species conservation, wildlife management, traffic safety, as well as from an economic and political point of view, and should thus be evaluated from these different perspectives. In this thesis, I assess, evaluate, analyse and predict animal-vehicle collisions with respect to their extent, their effect on populations, and their broad and fine scale distribution. A questionnaire with Swedish drivers indicated that nationwide road traffic in 1992 may caused an annual loss in harvest of common game species of 7% to 97% and of 1% to 12% of estimated populations. Road mortality did not appear as an existential threat to most species, although in badgers (Meles meles), traffic probably is the largest single cause of death. A slow population growth rate coupled with a high proportion of adult badger road-kills is responsible for their sensitivity to road mortality. Provided that road mortality is additive, we predicted that losses due to nationwide traffic might already exceed birth rates and limit badger population growth.
