Abstract This paper aims to examine how urban development pattern influence the alteration in travel time and carbon emission. We investigate the travel time spent for multiple activities of the users of a hig...h density mixed use development pattern in Central Business District (CBD) of Greater Cairo Metropolitan Region (GCMR). After that, we compare it with the average travel time in low density districts in GCMR. Our analysis found that users of CBD spend less total travel time than other residents by 17% ~ 21%. If every GCMR citizen could use such high density and mixed use areas, the travel time reduction would decrease fuel consuming that can reduce carbon dioxide (C02) emission by 10974.24 tons per year in the study areashow more
