ABSTRACT
COVID-19 has caused huge negative impacts on traffic and transportation. Existing research focused on the impact of COVID-19 on the traffic during the outbreak phase. There are still few studies related to the impact of COVID-19 on travel behavior during the post-epidemic phase. This paper analyzed the impact of COVID-19 during the post-epidemic phase, travelers' demographic characteristics, and perception of the COVID-19 severity on the elderly's travel behavior, with the confirmative factor analysis and Logit modeling. The results show that COVID-19 and perception of its severity have no significant impact on the elderly's short-distance trips. However, they have a significant impact on the elderly's willingness to travel by bus. Furthermore, these two factors have significant impacts on the elderly's trip frequency and bus trips.
