To simulate and analyze the needs of PT for LEZ demand fulfilment

Thessaloniki aims to implement a Low Emission Zone (LEZ) in the Rotonda area and optimize public transport (PT) services accordingly. Through a methodology considering the zone's size, PT stops, and land use, the measure seeks to define optimal PT services and digital transport management for the LEZ. Data collection, surveys, and GIS modelling will assess traveller satisfaction, origin-destination patterns, and PT accessibility. The proposed planning scheme will ensure majority access to the LEZ, with PT frequency, stops, and modes optimized through simulation analysis.
