With respect to reducing energy resources in the world, it is required to pay more attention to environmental management of energy consumption. Urban transportation is an important area in the field of energy. Urban activities are considerably concerned in the environmental management. There are two overall objectives in this study:
Development of a GIS model with acceptable accuracy, to plan appropriate locations for main transportation destinations
Development of urban transportation network to address one issue- fuel consumption.
Arak (a developing city in Iran) has been chosen as the case study. Methodology of this study helps to select suitable sites for development of urban transportation network and main destinations. GIS as a powerful tool is applied for layers overlaying and interpretation of several scenarios. Developed GIS model can be applied for planning of urban transportation networks and main transportation destinations. Based on the fuel consumption parameters, some suitability maps are produced. These maps show there are non-suitable zones for most of main destinations. This research has successfully managed development of a scientific approach for current and future model development. This approach can be employed in transportation planning and main destinations suitability assessment at both the local and national structure plan levels. The results focus on the approaches such as road type change and location changes of the main destination landuses to reduce fuel consumption.
