Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the travel patterns of people globally. These changes
could be attributed to the travel restrictions imposed by governments worldwide. Studies
have shown that these changes persist somewhat in the post-COVID-19 era.
Understanding post-COVID-19 travel patterns is essential for various aspects of society,
but most importantly, for transport planners to ensure sustainable mobility and positive
traffic flow. This paper aims to explore the travel pattern in the post-COVID-19 period in the
global south using a comprehensive literature review. Research articles and conference
papers from Google Scholar, Science Direct and Scopus were gathered and selected
based on the title. The findings show a major shift in the mode of travel, especially an
increase in the use of the private car. The paper will further recommend future research.
