Abstract

Abstract Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province, has long suffered from a series of urban problems, mainly the problem of transport and traffic in the city. Sustainable development and climate change are high on the agenda for most cities around the world today. Urban transport is at the heart of these changes. For the purpose of proposing and implementing sustainable transport strategies in the city, this research presents a study to answer the most important question of how to prioritize strategies resulting from the impact of land use on sustainable transport standards. It is of paramount importance to give the decision-makers, administrative and technical staff in the city enough room to make the appropriate decision spatially, temporally and artistically using a modern method to apply descriptive and quantitative analysis together, which is the hierarchical analysis method (AHP). The research has encountered a number of difficulties, the most important of which is the scarcity of the field data, especially the road and transport data in the city, which led researchers to rely personally on the analysis and collection of data related to research and based on the opinions of experts and specialists in the field of transport planning, the analysis found that the strategy of integration of land use with the transport network, is of paramount importance, followed by the strategy of avoiding unnecessary trips and then a number of strategies according to priority and importance in the service of the city.
