The social dimension of sustainable transport : investigating the accessibility of batna’s residents to public transport systems

Abstract EN

The aim of the current research is to analyze Batna’s public transport system in order to identify the main characteristics of social inclusion/exclusion.

This diagnostic will allow us to have a full image of the reality of individual’s opportunities to access key services (work, education, healthcare, shopping, etc.) in order to explore the possibility of implementing the best practices of sustainable mobility; both at the level of individuals and at the level of the state (policies).

Results of the study have revealed that there is a social exclusion in Batna’s public transport systems, especially regarding security & safety indicators.
