Part of the book series: Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation ((ASTI))

Abstract

Land use and transportation are mutually influential. Land use and transport interaction is complex and involves various mutual interactions over space and time. Rapidly changing land use causes significant changes in travel demands and patterns. Conversely, transportation system influences patterns of urban land use as well as the level of activities through the accessibility. Sustainability is central to this interaction. This paper attempts to understand the interaction between land use, transport, and sustainability. Spatial analysis of commercial centers (shopping malls) and public transport interaction has been conducted using GIS-based approach for Jeddah city, Saudi Arabia, which is one of the world’s fastest growing metropolitan areas. Results reveal a weak spatial interaction between commercial centers and public transport lines in Jeddah wherein sustainability is hampered.
