Transportation Feasibility: Visions and Strategies of The Proposed Urban Transport Project in Port Said city

Abstract

In urban areas, transportation planners go towards forecasting changes in travel demand induced by alternative transportation policies. This paper aims at determining transportation problems that need to solve such as the inflation of car ownership and taxis that occupies the most usable transport modes in Port Said city. A study area includes seven main zones; origins and destinations that are considered links producing and attracting trips every day. This study is organized into two parts. The first part is about how to clarify visions needed to achieve social and economic goals with the suggested Port-Said Strategy Transport (PSST) project. The second part concerns studying the proposed strategies suggested for rising the effectiveness and mobility of transport from the base year (2019) to the forecasting year (2030). Such enhancement can be reached using modern public transport policies such as BRT and sustainable transport strategies. After analysing the proposed strategies according to the social, economic, and environmental aspects using the sustainable and green strategy is the most effective solution to achieve the pre-clarified visions.
