Scientometric literature review: Effects of Work from Home (WFH) on transportation system

This literature survey aims to provide a broad view of studies on work from home (WFH) and its effect on travel behaviour published from 1975 to 5 February 2024 by employing bibliometric mapping in VOSviewer. The cluster analysis was deployed to identify collaboration among authors, institutions, and journals, the most co-cited articles and journals, and study terms co-occurrence. The detailed movement of information in each study was visualised using Sankey diagrams. This literature survey was conducted to develop the relationship between WFH and transport-related parameters, including travel behaviour, trip distance, housing location and land use management and to assess WFH's direct and indirect effects on household trips. The results revealed that most studies used questionnaire surveys for data collection and regression models for analysis. The least targeted parameters were home relocation, free choice of WFH, ICT, the effect of WFH on other household member trips per day, cross-country research, trip chaining, employers' perspectives on WFH, exact working location instead of home, and preferences of essential workers. The findings can assist researchers in identifying influential authors or institutions for future collaborations and the combination of parameters and future research directions that can be explored.
