For over three decades, he has examined differences in travel behavior, and transport systems and policies in Europe, Canada, the USA, and Australia. Pucher's more recent research has focused on walking and bicycling, and what we can learn from European cities to improve the safety, convenience, and feasibility of non-motorized modes. Pucher has published three books and over 100 peer-reviewed articles in academic and professional journals.
