Looking to join 15mC: traffic simulation, safety and accessibility (GTU, Türkiye)
Associate Professor at Gebze Technical University
Kocaeli, Türkiye
About
Gebze Technical University, Institute of Transportation Technologies, is looking to join a DUT Call 2026 consortium as a research partner.
Closest fit
15-minute City, Topic 2: Align ambitions for mobility transitions across sectors.
Secondary fit: adaptive reuse of existing mobility infrastructure and public space, where traffic operations, safety and access need to be modelled before redesign.
What we can deliver in a work package
- Microscopic and macroscopic traffic simulation (PTV VISSIM, PTV VISUM, SIDRA)
- Travel time reliability, congestion and network performance analysis
- Pedestrian behaviour and road safety analysis
- Public transport accessibility and community mobility (COST Action CA23101 BOPALiM, WG3)
- Park-and-ride and first/last mile analysis (GTU TTO and ISPARK study, 2024-2025)
- Applied studies with Turkish municipalities and operators in Istanbul and Kocaeli
What we are not claiming
We are not posting a ready-made project with a confirmed city co-applicant. We can discuss possible Turkish city or operator links, but the consortium still needs a municipality under DUT rules.
Who should contact us
- Coordinators that already have a city partner and need a traffic modelling, safety or accessibility work package
- Universities working on 15-minute city mobility, proximity and multimodal access
- Municipalities that want an applied research partner from Türkiye
Institution
Public research university. Eligible as a funded partner under TÜBITAK rules for DUT 2026.
