Investigating the environment impact of using a cycling, pedestrians’ friendly network on campus

Abstract

Using sustainable mobility systems and practices on university campuses has a variety of advantages, which can be classified as environmental, economic, social, or educational, depending on the primary purpose and goal of higher education institutions. Reduced air and noise pollution, reduced traffic on campus and in the surrounding environment, reduced use of non-renewable resources, and meaningful uses of land on campus are some of the environmental benefits of attaining sustainable mobility on university campuses. One of the most obvious detrimental consequences of colleges on environmental values, economic equality, and quality of life inside campus communities as well as adjacent towns is the everyday flow of vehicles to campuses. As a result, transportation is one of the most important challenges on today's university campuses, as well as in the neighboring communities.
