Abstract

The rapid growth in cities has led to new city patterns specially in third world countries. With the development and progress in technology, new demands have appeared. The future of technology and the digital transformation have led to the request for faster and cheaper means of transport that need to fulfill new demands. One of these challenges is the usage of two wheelers to quickly support delivery demands in crowded cities. In addition no pedestrian routes are considered. Modification in the infrastructure needed to be done to meet these demands. In this study the coastal city of Alexandria in Egypt is studied as an example of a quick expanding city. First, investigation of the direct impact of currect routes on the built environment whether main or secondary routes two-wheelers movement is done. Followed an analysis of integration and choice of current routes in order to help in suggesting safe pedestrian and two-wheeler paths and roads. The research aims at providing regeneration of roads in cities and for guiding the design of new ones in existing projects based on simulation results. Green and energy saving is what is needed to collaborate with the digital era. The significance, magnitude, and consistency of integration and choice measures justify their relevance in built infrastructure interventions to promote pedestrian and two wheelers. The main aim of this study is to optimize decision making by using the space syntax theory. The research aims at providing a pilot sample of responsive routes in existing cities and for guiding the design of new ones in the future.
