    The Influence of Sustainable Urban Mobility on the Urban Morphology of Copenhagen City
    (October university for modern sciences and Arts MSA, 2023) Ahmed Galal, Lobna
    Transportation has a large impact on greenhouse gas emissions, which have been linked in various studies to adverse environmental effects and climate change. To aid in the development of sustainable urban mobility planning, various strategies have been created. While decreasing dependency on private vehicles, these strategies promote access to services by walking, cycling, and public transportation. This study investigates the paradigm change from the "Finger plan" in 1947 to the pedestrianization of "Stroget" in 1962 to the cycling policy of 2002–2012. It aims to examine the morphological evolution of the city in terms of prioritizing the sustainable modes of urban mobility. Investigating the development of Copenhagen's urban morphology on the two scales: macro and micro scale. The macro scale investigation comprises regional planning, city growth, street networks, cycling tracks, bridges, super highway cycling system, and exploring the compact Copenhagen's city centre. Moreover, the micro scale investigation comprises Copenhagen's bicycle infrastructure; Copenhagen-style bicycle lanes, street design, and sidewalks.
