A COMPARISON OF EU’S AND TURKEY’S SUSTAINABLE URBAN MOBILITY

Abstract

The main aim of this paper is to compare the current situation of the Sustainable Urban Mobility in the European Union (EU) and Turkey. For this purpose, Sustainable Urban Mobility in the EU and Turkey is examined via literature review and to evaluate the current situation of sustainable urban mobility more deeply in Turkey, a questionnaire was conducted to Turkish Metropolitan Municipalities. The main conclusion of the questionnaire is that from sustainable urban mobility modes, the main missing mode is the cycling in Turkey. This paper shows that cycling is the sustainable urban mobility solution for Turkish cities. To motivate cycling, cycling indicators are developed for Turkish cities to pre-evaluate bike lane projects and a case study evaluation for the city of Eskişehir is calculated using these indicators.
