This book examines urban mobility across rapidly growing South Asian cities by drawing upon critical analyses of user experiences, popular media representations, and transport policies. While transport infrastructures are expanding, many residents - particularly those from lower-income households, older adults, women, and people with disabilities—lack access to affordable and accessible transport options. This limits their opportunities for decent employment, healthcare, and social participation, making inclusive mobility not a privilege but a fundamental right.

Through interdisciplinary analysis, the contributors generate evidence-based insights essential for developing inclusive transport policies. Moving beyond traditional engineering approaches, they adopt a user-centred perspective that highlights how multiple forms of discrimination - classism, sexism, ageism, and ableism - intersect to produce urban mobility inequalities. The chapters uniquely position transport as a crucial link to health services, education, and employment, serving as both a call to action and a roadmap for building inclusive transport infrastructures in unequal societies.

This book will be of use to researchers of transport geography, urban studies and development studies besides sociology, economics, management, geography, urban planning, urban sociology, policy studies, gender studies, and development studies. It will be an important resource for transport and urban policymakers.
