Geographic determinants of goods vehicle speeding in British cities.
Article in Npj sustainable mobility and transport, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Vehicular speeding remains a major challenge in urban and transportation planning, influenced by numerous underlying factors. Yet the influence of urban context in determining driving speed is less well understood. In this paper we undertake a large-scale, comprehensive analysis of speeding behaviour across 13 British cities, using trajectory data from goods vehicles across 3.2 million journeys. Unlike prior studies, we assess determinants of speeding across multiple scales-from engineering interventions to regional measures of road network configuration. The results indicate that road geometry and network connectivity have a casual association with speeding, similar to the effect of engineering interventions. These findings have two clear implications for urban and transportation planning. First, the credibility of speed reduction efforts can be enhanced through considering road network context, alongside engineering interventions. Second, analyses of local spatial behaviours should incorporate measures of urban context, reflecting the nature of human spatial perception.
