				Multimodal Network Planning, Identification of High Capacity Bus Corridor and Park and Ride Facilities
Multimodal Transport Strategy for the Greater Cairo Region: The WRI contracted TfC to provide capacity building to the Addis Ababa Transport Authority and Addis Ababa University to digitize the paratransit and bus networks, and create one single integrated GIS database. The data was then locally converted into GTFS and was made openly available on the DigitalTransport4Africa. platform.
As part of the Multimodal Transport Strategy for the Greater Cairo Region, TfC analysed a representative sample of ride- hailing data provided by Careem. The 5 million+ dataset was transformed into an origin-destination matrix which helped identify the most travelled routes.
Mwasalat Misr contracted TfC to provide a schematic map for their bus routes and interchange options within their network and with Cairo’s metro lines. We helped with choosing best location for their stops network, and we produced GIS and GTFS for those lines was used by MM in their journey planning app.
Expo Live supports the Digital Cairo consortium as part of a cohort of projects and solutions from around the world whose solutions generate social and environmental value and are in line with Expo 2020 Dubai’s subthemes of Opportunity, Mobility and Sustainability. Expo Live will harness the convening power of a World Expo to demonstrate how innovations coming from all places and people can advance the pace of progress and inspire a more inclusive and prosperous future.
This policy paper suggests solutions for utilizing urban mobility within the New Desert Communities (NDCs) to improve the living conditions of existing residents and attract more people to currently vacant housing, rather than simply continuing to focus on expansion.
Public transport will influence our mobility patterns, urban shape, social equity and economic performance for the coming decades. This policy paper – prepared by Transport for Cairo and Takween Integrated Community Development – outlines how mapping public transportation can achieve adequate urban mobility and achieve lasting sustainable development.
