Overview
Interdisciplinary approaches to transportation and urban planning are vital when addressing the challenges of modern cities. As urban populations increase and environmental concerns rise, traditional methods of planning often fall short. By integrating insights from diverse fields like sociology, environmental science, engineering, and economics, planners can develop better solutions for increased sustainability, equity, and efficiency. This collaboration may enhance transportation system designs while fostering vibrant urban environments. Embracing an interdisciplinary approach is necessary to allow innovative strategies responding to emerging social, economic, and environmental factors. Interdisciplinary Approaches to Transportation and Urban Planning explores the relationship between transportation systems and urban planning strategies, emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary collaboration to address challenges of contemporary urban environments. It provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research, innovative approaches, and practical solutions in the field of urban planning and transportation. This book covers topics such as cloud computing, smart cities, and urban mobility, and is a useful resource for architects, government officials, computer engineers, policymakers, economists, environmental scientists, academicians, and researchers.
