Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As urban areas continue to develop, ensuring sustainable, safe, and efficient transportation systems is crucial for supporting economic vitality, reducing environmental impacts, improving road safety, and enhancing quality of life. This Special Issue on "Sustainable Urban Mobility: Road Safety and Traffic Engineering" invites research on the latest innovations, challenges, best practices, and findings in the areas of road safety and traffic engineering in relation to sustainable urban mobility.
Some key themes of this issue include sustainable transport planning, smart mobility and autonomous solutions, micromobility, and innovative traffic management strategies. In particular, we welcome submissions that address topics such as sustainable infrastructure design, the integration of non-motorized modes, electric and public transport modes, smart infrastructure, autonomous vehicles, and novel approaches in traffic safety and monitoring.
This Special Issue aims to bring together multidisciplinary insights to support the development of urban transport systems that prioritize safety, sustainability, and resilience. By contributing to this issue, researchers can help shape a safer, greener, and more accessible future for urban mobility.
