Hello listserv members.
I have been trying to find literature related to the health and environmental impacts of drive-thrus. There are a number of studies related to vehicle idling, but I am hoping to find drive-thru specific research. Is anyone aware of studies, preferably peer-reviewed, that deal with drive thrus contribution to: air pollution health impacts pedestrian impacts urban planning/transportation problems.
Thank you.
