  • Older people's perceptions of emerging transport technologies and intentions to use them

    Open AccessAlexandros Nikitas, Stefanos Tsigdino et al.ARTICLETransport Policy2026

    This study explores how older people perceive emerging transport technologies, designed to reform the future of mobility. With older populations rising dramatically and being on the one hand the age group most vulnerable to social exclusion and on the other hand increasingly influential in societal structures, the transport sector is under pressure to adapt to their diverse and sometimes specialised mobility needs. In this context, the study expl…

  • Port Urban Planning Regeneration in Piraeus City Port, Greece

    Open AccessGeorge Koumparakis, Efthimios Bakogiannis et al.ARTICLEUrban Science2026

    Port cities represent an interdependent system in which port and urban activities overlap and develop. While ports serve as the gateway for the city, expanding market reach and attracting investments, cities provide the necessary labor and services required for the operation of the ports. However, the mutual relationship between ports and cities is threatened by conflicts such as urban sprawl, which leads to friction by taking the space needed fo…

  • Accessibility challenges for older adults and people with disabilities

    Open AccessChristos Karolemeas, Stefanos Tsigdino et al.ARTICLECities2026References: 105

    In times defined by a rapid transition towards a smart technology paradigm, accessibility remains a key prerequisite for social inclusion, equity and quality of life, especially for populations with special mobility needs like older adults and people with disabilities. This study meticulously reviews the existing literature to identify barriers and opportunities related to the mobility of these vulnerable groups within urban transport systems. Us…

  • Bridging Perceptions

    Open AccessIoannis Chatziioannou, Panagiotis Kanellopoulos et al.ARTICLEUrban Science2025References: 7

    In the context of public space research, numerous studies highlight its vital role in fostering public life and social interaction. With urbanization on the rise and most people living in cities, acknowledging public spaces, and especially public squares, as key components of the urban realm is more important than ever. The success of space is frequently determined by its capacity to meet human needs, a condition that, in turn, is largely conting…

  • A worldwide review of formal national street classification plans enhanced via an analytical hierarchy process

    Open AccessStefanos Tsigdino, Stefanos Tsigdinos et al.ARTICLECities2024

    For cities to utilise their maximum liveability potential, their transport infrastructure and overall service provision need to function seamlessly. To this end, urban street eco-systems should be characterised, organised and utilised effectively. But is this happening on a mass scale across the globe? Are our urban street classification schemes forward-thinking and ready to respond to the emerging sustainability and resilience challenges cities …

  • Analysing urban growth using machine learning and open data

    Open AccessPavlos Tsagkis, Efthimios Bakogiannis et al.ARTICLESustainable Cities and Society2023

    Urban development if not planned and managed adequately can be unsustainable. Urban growth models have been a powerful toolkit to help tackling this challenge. In this paper, we use a machine learning approach, to apply an urban growth model to five of the largest cities in Greece. Specifically, we first develop a methodology to collect, organise, handle and transform historical open spatial data, concerning various impact factors, into machine l…

  • Quantifying and visualizing the 15-Minute walkable city concept across Europe

    Open AccessAlexandros Bartzokas-Tsiompras, Efthimios BakogiannisARTICLEJournal of Maps2023

    The disruptions associated with health and energy crisis have emphasized the need for hyperlocal cities. However, in Europe, a tool to measure the efficiency of land use and accessibility planning for localizing urban mobility is missing. In this paper, we construct a comparable 15-Minute-Walking City (15-MWC) index that assesses the walking performance of 121 European metropolitan areas and seven amenity types. The data are combined equally foll…

  • The Role of Covid-19 in Molding the Economy and Social Inequity of Mexican Households

    Open AccessTonatiuh Suárez-Meaney, Ioannis Chatziioannou et al.ARTICLESocial Sciences2023References: 3

    The COVID-19 pandemic has deeply influenced the economy of all nations, and Mexico is no exception. This effect is distinct for different groups of the population, with variable socio-economic and demographic characteristics, that live in regions of contrasting features. An efficient apparatus for measuring expenditure variations and tendency is the National Household Income and Expenditure Survey performed by the National Institute of Statistics…

  • A composite index for assessing accessibility in urban areas

    Open AccessLambros Mitropoulos, Christos Karolemeas et al.ARTICLEJournal of Transport Geography2023Cited by: 6References: 10

    Effective transportation planning necessitates the consideration of all road network users and their needs. Towards this goal, the integration of accessibility in planning and the development of tools that enable the assessment and measurement of accessibility within urban areas becomes essential. This study aims to contribute to the accessibility assessment process of urban areas by developing two accessibility indices: the infrastructure and th…

  • Global microscale walkability ratings and rankings

    Open AccessAlexandros Bartzokas-Tsiompras, Efthimios Bakogiannis et al.ARTICLEJournal of Transport Geography2023Cited by: 6References: 8

    Several walkability studies have focused primarily on macro-level environmental factors. Nevertheless, previous research has shown that street-level design can also support walking. In this paper, we present a novel Microscale Walkability Index, ‘MWI’, that measures, ranks, and analyses the pedestrian-friendliness levels of 59 heterogeneous city centres in 26 European countries. We selected 26 case studies from European capitals and 33 city centr…

  • Evaluating the public acceptance of sustainable mobility interventions responding to Covid-19

    Open AccessCharalampos Kyriakidis, Ioannis Chatziioannou et al.ARTICLECities2023Cited by: 5References: 81

    COVID-19, the most wide-spread and disruptive pandemic in over a century, enforced emergency urban design responses meaning to recalibrate transport provision globally. This is the first work that systematically evaluates the 'public acceptance' as a proxy for 'policy success' and 'potential for longer-term viability' of the high-profile sustainable transport intervention package introduced in 2020 in the capital city of Greece known as the Great…

  • Reconsidering Sustainable Mobility Patterns in Cultural Route Planning

    Open AccessEfthimios Bakogiannis, Charalampos Kyriakidis et al.ARTICLEHeritage2019References: 4

    Culture is frequently used as a means of promoting sustainable urban development. Indeed, in many areas across Europe, cultural and recreational routes or clusters have so far been utilized in order for urban regeneration and structural reconstruction to be pursued. Such routes have been developed in Greek cities as well, e.g., in the cities of Volos, Thessaloniki, and Athens. In the Greek capital, Athens, a couple of axes are actually recognized…
