ABSTRACT
Recently, there has been significant rise in the interest and application of non-motorized transport (NMT). However, there is very little that is known about the new forms and developments within NMT. Consequently, this paper investigated the current and emerging themes around NMT globally. A bibliometric review process of publications whereby the VOSViewer software was utilized to analyze relationships and emerging developments in NMT planning and management. The paper reviewed developments in NMT from 1996 to 2022. It revealed key authors, core themes, countries and organizations which have published in the field of NMT and the relationship between NMT and accessibility, safety, infrastructure and sustainability. This research brought forth the lack of NMT articles published for the last 26 years, key themes which have already been covered and the lack of government participation. More articles around NMT need to be published and the implementation of NMT policies, plans and projects.
