Transport is an important and integral part of the industrial and social infrastructure. A sustainable transport system must meet the broader aims of minimising air pollution, improving safety, equality of access, and climate resilience of infrastructure. Achieving these aims requires technical, behavioural and organisational changes.
This Research Topic focuses on how we can achieve a resilient and sustainable transport system, going beyond a technology-only solution to consider how we design, plan and deliver mobility for our citizens.
We encourage research papers demonstrating real-world evidence and case studies which highlight scaleable, flexible ways to achieve sustainability in transport of people and goods across all modes. Such research should include key enablers, barriers, risks, limitations and synergies which can inform the wider public and policy-making debate.
We invite authors to report on the results of their research on the development and promotion of sustainability in urban transport systems.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Smart mobility and infrastructure
• Innovative and smart technologies in logistics
• Logistics 4.0 and the internet of things
• Sustainable supply chains and their management
• Assistive technology for environmentally friendly transport
• Transport and warehouse management
• Integration of land use and transport planning
• Smart and active mobility (walking and cycling)
• New data sources and analytical models to predict demand for mobility
• Road safety and transport policy
• Whole life emissions, cost and circular economy considerations in transport infrastructure
• Climate resilience
• Solutions which address the needs of rural and remote populations
• Management of risks
• Reverse logistics
• COVID and e-trading
• BIM and CIM in transportation
We especially welcome submissions that describe the rational functioning of the city's transport system based on the development and implementation of intelligent road infrastructure and transport logistics management systems.
This Research Topic has been realized in collaboration with Prof.Firas Alrawi from the University of Baghdad, Iraq.
