Abstract
Sustainable transportation for cities has been studied by many researches;
however its application on historic districts especially Arab traditional cities
with significant and distinguished urban historical features is yet to be
explored. The purpose of this research is to devise an innovative approach
and comprehensive strategic scheme of sustainable transportation modes
and network within the historical cores of traditional cities.
The research hypothesizes that; historic areas within the Arab world and
especially the current case study area in Alexandria have mostly lost their
urban heritage because of the inappropriate imported applications for
transportation plans that resulted in formations of urban fabric and street
pattern. Therefore, finding a prototype for the movement patterns and the
sustainable modes of transportation in these historic districts may preserve
their urban fabric and street pattern and realize and identify their historical
identity. Accordingly, the research (1) examines this assumption through an
analytical and empirical framework analysis on the study area in Alexandria,
(2) confirms the loss in the historic area’s urban heritage and (3) seeks
sustainable transportation prototype approach and applications for green
modes of movement in this historic Turkish district in Alexandria.
Significant cases of German cities have been selected and analysed in order
recognize the alternative methodological approaches for sustainable
transportation application. This analysis will highlight certain criteria’s that
will act as a guide for the future application for sustainable transportation in
the Turkish district.
To further elaborate, Space syntax analysis is used in the empirical work to
identify the spatial configuration of the study area and whether the urban
fabric and street pattern changes (from the map of 1940s and the current
map) affected the movement patterns distribution and the land uses changes
not. The descriptive analysis of maps suggests how the spaces are used.
The analysis finishes with different syntactic results and readings highlights
the most integrated axes either matching or mismatching the real-life
circumstances and the urban or social features of the area under
investigation. This experimental method will give emphasis to the decision
sustainable transportation and movement patterns and distribution within
this historical district.
