Cities play a key role in sustainable development. Urban growth must be managed ways that support and drive economic development, achieve social cohesion environmental sustainability. The concept of Smart emerged the same way as Smartphones or TVs. A number initiatives are being developed part City projects; however, there is lack consistent indicators, databases methodologies for assessing, financing, implementing these kinds initiatives. projects today classified according to six clusters...
This study explores the enhancement of noise assessment accuracy by integrating Finite Element Method (FEM) as a complementary approach to Common Noise Assessment Methods in Europe (CNOSSOS-EU). CNOSSOS-EU, widely adopted reference for strategic mapping across and beyond, provides an semi-empirical model propagation based on experimental algorithms simplifications. While robust, CNOSSOS-EU’s can overlook complex physical geometric characteristics certain environments, particularly detailed...
Although transport infrastructure is one of the prominent factors that make Spain a major tourist destination, international literature has revealed opening new High-Speed Rail (HSR) lines not sufficient by itself in order to increase outputs connected destinations. Nevertheless, roles played different characteristics both travelers and destinations are interest but they still remain sufficiently explored. This paper focuses on role HSR fostering cultural tourism applying fixed-effect...
Air quality is one of the problems cities face today. The COVID-19 pandemic provided a unique opportunity to study influence traffic reduction on air during 2020, 2021, and 2022. aim this paper analyze impacts relationship between mobility restrictions in six wave periods pollution evolution post-pandemic period differentiating Madrid city from its metropolitan area. We tested whether changes produced for NO2, NOx, PM2.5, PM10, O3 urban suburban stations data comparison 2019 reference were...
Motorways are large infrastructures that alter the environmental resources in a territory, while constituting an important element through which individual comes into contact with landscape. integrated landscape their layout design and construction, aesthetic details of minor structures (design building materials) treatment embankments planting. In this paper, we test following hypotheses: motorway elements related to perception quality—from point view road users—and characteristics planting...
Commuting to work by private vehicle is one of the main sources air pollution in cities, mainly from NO2 and particulate matter (PM2.5 PM10). With spread telework, traffic congestion during peak hours reduced on certain days week, improving quality. This study an-alyzes relationship between improvement quality urban resulting teleworking activities after COVID-19 pandemic Madrid, Spain. The article considers road before (2018 2019), (2020 2021) period (2022 2023) city center in-fluence...
Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) is fairly well-established in Spain, informing decision-makers on the likely environmental consequences of their plans and policies. However, limited attention has been paid to study SEA effectiveness particularly with regards practitioner stakeholder views. This paper aims bridge this knowledge gap by gathering examining views SEA's participatory aspects, performance procedural elements overall role decision-making. The describes legal implementation...
