Travel is an activity that everyone carries out in their daily life. While travelling, commuters are exposed to air pollution, which is likely to impact their mode, route, and/or departure time choice. Various review studies on vehicular emissions have been conducted in the past, but the aspects of its impact on resulting air quality and travel behaviour are sporadic and largely unorganized. In an effort to close this gap, this study carried out an extensive review of 63 studies to document the influence of air pollution on travel behaviour. The findings reveal that a majority of the research in this arena has been carried out in the USA and China, and the highest instances of behaviour change was observed when users shifted their routes to reduce exposure. The awareness about AQI and its real-time pre-trip information plays a vital role in lowering commuters’ air pollution exposure. Finally, strategies such as congestion/emission pricing schemes, MaaS, etc. could provide a clean travel environment to all commuters by reducing their exposure during travel.
