Travel Demand Management for Sustainable Urban Transport in Kuala Lumpur: Operation and Energy Consumption Issues
Abstract: A number of South-East Asian cities are experiencing rapid growth in car ownership and overall transportation demand in the context of relatively low fuel and road tax along with land use patterns that encourage private automobile trips. To address these challenges, sustainable transport initiatives, which often include travel demand management (TDM), are increasingly being promoted at the city level. This paper examines the effectiveness of TDM on reducing road traffic …

Determining Factor Influencing Public Acceptance in Congestion Pricing
Abstract: Congestion pricing is a powerful tool for traffic demand management, which is used to divert traffic by imposing economic obstruction to the traveler. Whereas, Implementation of Congestion pricing is exaggerated issue. There are several barriers arise before the implementation of congestion pricing which influences Public attitude toward pricing policy. The Major problem associated with Congestion pricing is public acceptance, which is a crucial factor for the successful implementation of pricing …

A Review Study on Urban Public Transportation and Management
Abstract: Cities play a vital role in promoting economic growth and prosperity. The development of cities chiefly depends upon their physical, social, and institutional infrastructure. In this context, the importance of intraurban transportation is supreme. Before covering every aspect of urban transportation, it chiefly focuses on those areas that are important from a policy point of view. The article first reviews the trends of vehicular growth and availability of transport infrastructure …

Understanding Land Use-Transport Integration: A Literature Review on Theories and Practices in Urban-Transport Planning
Abstract: For many years, it has been understood and can be generalized from various researches and quantitative modelling that there is a causal relationship between land-use typology and travel demand/behaviour as the former influences the later in urban areas. The idea of land-use transport integration models evolved due to the need felt by the urban planners and managers for quantitatively forecasting future pattern of city and regional development as well as …

Adaptive Traffic Control Systems: Enhancing Urban Mobility through Real-Time Traffic Management
Abstract: Traffic congestion is a ubiquitous challenge in urban areas, necessitating innovative solutions to improve transportation efficiency and alleviate gridlock. Traditional traffic signal control methods often prove inadequate in dynamically adapting to fluctuating traffic conditions, leading to increased travel times, fuel consumption, and emissions. In response, adaptive traffic control systems have emerged as a promising approach to mitigate congestion and enhance traffic flow in urban environments. These devices dynamically modify signal …
