    World Expo 2020: Destination Dubai August 2015 Dubai World Trade Centre www.thebig5.ae 23-26 Nov 2015 Definition of World Expo The World Expo is a major event, considered to be the third-largest global non- commercial event in terms of economic and cultural impact, after the Olympic Games and the FIFA World Cup. The World Expo is an universal exposition sanctioned by the Bureau of International Expositions (BIE) and organised every five years by the nation that wins the right to host the event. They attract millions of visitors who explore and discover pavilions, exhibitions and cultural events staged by hundreds of participants including nations, international organisations and businesses. Each one is a catalyst for economic, cultural and social transformation and generates important legacies for the host city and nation. The current World Expo is being held at Milan, Italy (May 1st to October 31st, 2015). The Dubai Expo 2020 and its significance The Dubai Expo 2020 will be the first one to be held in the MENA region, and it will run for a six-month period between October 2020 and April 2021. Approximately 182 countries and companies are expected to participate in the Dubai Expo 2020. The purpose of the Dubai Expo 2020 is to provide a platform for the global community to share innovations and engage in debate about key issues facing the world. The reason the Dubai Expo 2020 is evincing huge interest is because analysts believe it will boost tourism and other parts of the economy as the government is likely to spend a predicted US$ 7 billion on infrastructure, with the benefit expected to trickle down to other industries.

  • Dubai [Metro]Polis: Infrastructural Landscapes and Urban Utopia
    Dubai [Metro]polis: Infrastructural Landscapes and Urban Utopia When Dubai Metro was launched in 2009, it became a new catalyst for urban change but also a modern tool to interact with the city - providing a visual experience and an unprecedented perception of moving in space and time, almost at the edge between the imaginary and the real. By drawing on the traditional association between train, perception and the city we argue that the design and planning of Dubai Metro is intended as a signifier of modernity for the Gulf region, with its futuristic designs and in the context of the local socio-cultural associations. NADIA MOUNAJJED INTRODUCTION Abu Dhabi University For the last four decades, Dubai epitomized a model for post-oil Gulf cities and positioned itself as a subject for visionary thinking and urban experimentation. PAOLO CARATELLI During the years preceding 2008, Dubai became almost a site of utopia - evoking Abu Dhabi University a long tradition of prolific visionary thinking about the city – particularly 1970s utopian projects. Today skyscrapers, gated communities, man-made islands, iconic buildings and long extended waterfronts, dominate the cityscape. Until now, most of the projects are built organically within a fragmented urban order, often coexisting in isolation within a surrounding incoherence. When inaugu- rated in 2009, Dubai Metro marked the beginning of a new association between urbanity, mobility and modernity. It marked the start of a new era for urban mass transit in the Arabian Peninsula and is now perceived as an icon of the emirate’s modern urbanity (Ramos, 2010, Decker, 2009, Billing, n.

  • Walking Toward Metro Stations: the Contribution of Distance, Attitudes, and Perceived Built Environment
    sustainability Article Walking toward Metro Stations: the Contribution of Distance, Attitudes, and Perceived Built Environment Mohammad Paydar 1,* , Asal Kamani Fard 2 and Mohammad Mehdi Khaghani 3 1 Escuela de Arquitectura Temuco, Facultad de Humanidades, Universidad Mayor, Av. Alemania 281, Temuco 4780000, Chile 2 Academic Researcher, Universidad Católica del Maule, San Miguel 3605, Talca, Chile; [email protected] 3 Department of Urban Studies, Apadana Institute of Higher Education, Shiraz 7187985443, Iran; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 September 2020; Accepted: 16 November 2020; Published: 9 December 2020 Abstract: Walking as an active means of travel is important as a sustainable mode of transport. Moreover, the level of walking in the surrounding areas of metro stations would contribute to maintaining the minimum rate of physical activity and, therefore, inhabitants’ general health. This study examined the impacts of walking attitude, walking distance, and perceived built environment on walking behavior for reaching the metro stations in Shiraz, Iran. Three metro stations were selected and a quantitative approach was used to examine the objectives. It was found that the average walking distance is less than the average in developed countries, such as the United States. People walked more when there was a shorter distance between their starting points and the metro stations. The contribution of walking attitudes and several built environment attributes to walking behavior was demonstrated. Finding the contribution of aesthetic attributes, such as accessibility to parks and housing types of the starting points of the walking trips, to walking for transport are taken into account as the novelties of this study.

  • Transit Element
    Town of Cary Comprehensive Transportation Pllan Chapter 6 – Introduction At the time of the 2001 Comprehensive Transportation Plan, the Town of Cary had no bus service other than Route 301 operated by the Triangle Transit Authority (TTA). Since then, Cary has expanded its transit Transit services considerably, with a new local fixed-route service for the public and demand-responsive paratransit for seniors and persons with disabilities. TTA has added routes as well. As the Town’s Element population continues rising and travel demand increases, the Town plans to expand its local service, capturing riders coming from and going to planned residential and commercial developments. Situated amidst the Research Triangle of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, Cary is served today by multiple transit providers. Fixed route bus services within Cary are provided by C-Tran and TTA. C-Tran, Wake Coordinated Transportation Services (WCTS), and the Center for Volunteer Caregiving provide demand-responsive paratransit services. WCTS also provides rural general public transit via its TRACS service program; however, services are not provided for urban trips within Cary. Amtrak operates daily train service. This chapter describes current fixed-route transit and paratransit conditions, projected growth in the Town, and proposed future service changes.
