| Abstract | ||
| The transportation sector is a crucial aspect of urban development at all planning level. City transportation planning is a complicated topic that is an inherent aspect of the urban planning process and urban development, as well as the long-term planning of both highways and urban transport on the one hand and urban development on the other. Egyptian cities have numerous challenges caused by the indiscriminate growth of the transport and mobility sector, also the impacts of such indiscriminate growth cannot be quantified when developing strategic plans for roads and mass transportation, and thus are not reflected in the vision of the existing situation and decision-making in the strategic plan. The contribution of this research of lies in monitoring the performance of urban transport systems in a small Egyptian city. It intends to establish applicable development strategies in order to optimize the developmental benefits of strategic plans across several sectors and achieve sustainable development. There is a clear correlation between transportation networks, roads, and many other sectors, including the economy, infrastructure, services, and urban development. This research paper discusses the application of Transport Key Performance Indicators (transport KPIs) to assess urban transport network efficiency, analyzing international experiences and applying some of these indicators to the city of Samanoud. The goal is to measure the effectiveness of strategic plans for roads and urban transport using these indicators. The study then proposes recommendations and mechanisms to address the identified gaps in the analysis. The research concludes by evaluating the application of these indicators to formulate strategic plans, outlining the main obstacles to implementation, and providing recommendations to improve the use of these indicators in similar cases. Finally, it offers suggestions for future research to enhance the application of these indicators in the Egyptian context overall. | ||
