Hossein Mousavi is a Higher Degree by Research Candidate in the School of Management at Adelaide University and a practising Traffic Engineer with more than 17 years of experience across local government, industry, research and major transport infrastructure projects.
His research focuses on transport planning, parking management, travel behaviour and stakeholder preferences. His PhD investigates how different stakeholder groups respond to parking management strategies, with particular interest in understanding how potentially competing stakeholder preferences can be incorporated into transport planning and decision-making. His research applies stated-preference discrete choice experiments and choice-modelling techniques to examine the preferences and trade-offs of residents, business owners, visitors, parents and workers.
Alongside his research, Hossein works as a Traffic Engineer at the City of Port Adelaide Enfield. His professional experience covers traffic and transport planning, parking management, local area traffic management, road safety, freight and heavy vehicle access, development assessment, active transport and school traffic management.
Hossein's academic and professional interests centre on connecting transport research with real-world practice and using behavioural evidence, quantitative analysis and stakeholder perspectives to support evidence-based transport planning and decision-making.
My research focuses on parking management, travel behaviour and stakeholder preferences, with particular interest in understanding how the potentially competing needs and priorities of different stakeholder groups can be incorporated into transport planning and decision-making.
My PhD uses stated-preference discrete choice experiments and choice-modelling techniques to investigate how residents, business owners, visitors, parents and workers respond to different parking management strategies. The research examines trade-offs involving parking cost, availability, time restrictions, search and cruising time, walking distance, accessibility and safety.
My broader research interests include discrete choice analysis, travel behaviour, transport planning and policy, traffic engineering, road safety, freight transport, active transport and evidence-based transport decision-making.
