Mobility data justice begins from a simple displacement: transport should not be judged primarily by movement, but by access. A city is not just because it contains roads, vehicles, apps, dashboards or modal options. It becomes just when differentiated persons can reach work, care, education, health, food, shade, public life and social connection without excessive cost, risk, waiting, exclusion or bodily exposure. CitationalCommitment names the ethical obligation to account for what is counted, who is cited by data, who is omitted, and how mobility evidence becomes public responsibility. The ITF’s Sustainable Accessibility for All provides the normative centre. Accessibility shifts the question away from kilometres travelled and toward opportunities reached. This matters because mobility can increase while justice decreases. A city may become faster for some and more fragmented for others. It may optimise flows while deepening transport poverty. Access requires person-based and territory-sensitive metrics: age, income, gender, disability, household structure, settlement pattern, service availability, temporal burden and digital connectivity all matter.
