“…expanding city, is confronted with substantial urban issues such as major urban transport problems leading to persistent tra c congestion, car crashes, air pollution and noise pollution, and energy and time waste [34]. In [35], the authors stated that tra c congestion, particularly the Istanbul Strait crossings, is one of the city's most persistent di culties, according to social studies.…”

Stations on the metro system are important transportation hubs that handle a large number of the daily trip. Through the metro stations that facilitate pedestrian mobility and serve as a magnet for businesses, public transportation systems have the potential to alter the character of a community depending on the circumstances. Using location-based social network (LBSN) data, this study aims to quantify the area surrounding metro stations and metro lines, as well as to conduct a cluster analysis of Istanbul metro stations based on the pattern of LBSN data to gain insights into the characteristics of each station's surrounding area. To this end, the Foursquare venue data were gathered using the Foursquare API database. Then the data was cleaned and categorized based on the main activity and mapped in ArcGIS pro. K means cluster analysis was performed based on different venue activities around each station. Based on various venue activities, 77 Metro stations are classified into three types, namely undeveloped stations, developed stations, and touristic stations. The majority of stations were placed in undeveloped groups with a low activity level. The developed stations are mainly located in the commercial and touristic areas.

“…As shown in Figure 2, the Yıldız merging area of the O-1 highway consists of three lanes with mixed traffic flow per direction. Due to the distribution of residential and business districts in Istanbul, the majority of Bosporus crossings go from the Asian side to the European side in the morning hours, with the opposite flow appearing in the evening hours [35,36]. This study Table 8 presents the obtained MANE and RMSE values.…”

Most of the microscopic traffic simulation programs used today incorporate car-following and lane-change models to simulate driving behaviour across a given area. The main goal of this study has been to develop an automatic calibration process for the parameters of driving behaviour models using metaheuristic algorithms. Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and a combination of GA and PSO (i.e. hybrid GAPSO and hybrid PSOGA) were used during the optimization stage. In order to verify our proposed methodology, a suitable study area with high bus volume on-ramp from the O-1 Highway in Istanbul has been modelled in VISSIM. Traffic data have been gathered through detectors. The calibration procedure has been coded using MATLAB and implemented via the VISSIM-MATLAB COM interface. Using the proposed methodology, the results of the calibrated model showed that hybrid GAPSO and hybrid PSOGA techniques outperformed the GA-only and PSO-only techniques during the calibration process. Thus, both are recommended for use in the calibration of microsimulation traffic models, rather than GA-only and PSO-only techniques.

“…Alcançar a sustentabilidade econômica, social e ambiental do transporte urbano é um dos grandes desafios contemporâneos (Alpkokin, Black, et al, 2016), podendo se dar especialmente pelo uso de transporte não motorizado (caminhadas e bicicletas) ou motorizados através do transporte público.…”
