Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The Special Issue on sustainable transportation systems will explore the multi-faceted dimensions of transportation, safety, and mobility. As urbanization accelerates and environmental concerns grow, there is a pressing need to develop transportation solutions that not only reduce environmental impacts but also improve safety and mobility for all users. This Special Issue will encompass a broad range of topics, including technological innovations, policy and regulatory frameworks, infrastructure development, and behavioral studies related to sustainable transportation. Additionally, the issue will cover advancements in vehicle technology, public transportation systems, and the integration of smart technologies to enhance safety and mobility. This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive platform for interdisciplinary research and discourse, fostering collaboration among scholars, practitioners, and policymakers.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to gather and disseminate high-quality research that addresses the multifaceted challenges and opportunities in sustainable transportation. By highlighting cutting-edge developments, evaluating the impact of current policies, and proposing new strategies, the Issue aims to drive forward the agenda of sustainable, safe, and efficient transportation systems. It seeks to encourage the adoption of best practices, promote innovative solutions, and support the creation of more resilient and inclusive transportation networks. This Special Issue seeks to contribute to the ongoing dialog surrounding sustainable transportation by presenting high-quality research and practical insights that can guide future advancements in the field. Through this collection, we aim to inspire innovative approaches and collaborative efforts towards creating sustainable, safe, and efficient transportation systems for all.
