Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The process of urbanization has resulted in various challenges, such as congestion, pollution, public health, safety, and limited green spaces, which increase the complexity of urban transportation systems. Innovative and sustainable solutions for urban mobility are critical. The aim of this Special Issue is to evaluate the impact of greenway development on urban mobility through using system principles, analyzing the dynamic interactions between socio-economic, environmental, and urban planning systems in the context of greenway integration, and assessing the synergy between greenways and existing transportation systems. Thus, we are seeking articles investigating different approaches to the integration of greenways and sustainable urban mobility as a comprehensive solution. We also welcome papers examining previous studies on greenway development and how it relates to sustainable urban mobility. Finally, we will analyze successful case studies from around the world and identify the key factors contributing to their success. This Special Issue will also present system-level policy recommendations, taking into account the interconnectivity of various urban components, and act as a guide in light of the dynamic changes in the urban environment. It will provide valuable insights into the transformative potential of greenways for sustainable urban mobility.
