“…However, these studies have mainly focused on the capital, Bogotá, and the city of Cali. About Medellin, there are, for example, other works [29,30] analyzing the improved access of users of the Metrocable system, but without measuring social equity, and Matsuyuki et al [38] examined the effect of Metrocable on the socio-economic and spatial scope in a specific community of Medellin.…”

“…Innovative solutions: cable-cars have emerged as a cost-effective solution for connecting unplanned settlements on the steep hillsides surrounding Latin American cities such as Medellín, Colombia (Davila et al, 2013;Matsuyuki et al, 2020) and La Paz, Bolivia (Garsous et al, 2019). This approach could be feasible for Ulaanbaatar which, like Medellín, has grown laterally in a river valley.…”

“…More specifically, Church et al (2000) identified the following seven transport-related factors that can lead to social exclusion: physical exclusion because of physical obstructions, geographical exclusion because services are too spatially inconvenient, exclusion from facilities because of distance from home, economic exclusion because of unaffordability, time-based exclusion because of scheduling or journey times, fear-based exclusion because of security threats, and space exclusion through the denial of access. In summarising the relationship between transport and social equity, Cordoba et al (2014) identify increased mobility as a factor to reduce social exclusion, while Matsuyuki et al (2020) note that increased mobility can often be assumed to be a proxy for poverty reduction.…”

“…The availability of public transport services and the ability of residents to access services is a fundamental contributor to social equity [22], particularly in a Global South city such as Ulaanbaatar where a majority of ger district households do not have reliable access to a private car [23][24][25]. Cordoba et al [26] note the existence of an historic inverse correlation between mobility and poverty, and Matsuyuki et al [27] suggest that increased mobility can, in many instances, be taken to be as a proxy for reduced levels of poverty. Access to public transport therefore provides a foundational means to offer mobility, and thus, by definition, access to the opportunities of the city.…”
