COVID-19病毒的传播导致许多国家采取前所未有的措施限制旅行和活动参与。社交距离，即，减少人与人之间的互动，以减缓病毒的传播，已成为新的规范。在这个观点中，我将讨论社交距离对日常旅行模式的潜在影响。避免社会接触可能会完全改变人们进行的户外活动的数量和类型，以及人们如何进行这些活动。可以预期，出行需求将减少，人们将减少乘坐公共交通工具出行。社交距离可能会对主观幸福感和健康状况产生负面影响，因为它可能会导致社交孤立和身体活动受限。因此，步行和骑自行车，无论是娱乐性的还是功利性的，都可以成为保持令人满意的健康和福祉水平的重要方式。因此，政策制定者和规划者应努力鼓励积极出行，而公共交通运营商应专注于创造安全使用公共交通的方法。(c)2020作者由Elsevier Ltd.发布。这是CC BY-NC-ND许可证下的开放获取文章（http：//creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/）。
The spread of the COVID-19 virus has resulted in unprecedented measures restricting travel and activity participation in many countries. Social distancing, i.e., reducing interactions between individuals in order to slow down the spread of the virus, has become the new norm. In this viewpoint I will discuss the potential implications of social distancing on daily travel patterns. Avoiding social contact might completely change the number and types of out-of-home activities people perform, and how people reach these activities. It can be expected that the demand for travel will reduce and that people will travel less by public transport. Social distancing might negatively affect subjective well-being and health status, as it might result in social isolation and limited physical activity. As a result, walking and cycling, recreationally or utilitarian, can be important ways to maintain satisfactory levels of health and well-being. Policymakers and planners should consequently try to encourage active travel, while public transport operators should focus on creating ways to safely use public transport.(c) 2020 The Author.
