Managing transportation systems on university campuses is complex and demands
meticulous planning and execution. The University of Kufa is a case in point, with high
levels of activity from pedestrians, public transport, and car traffic leading to serious
congestion. This congestion creates conflict zones, compromising pedestrian safety,
traffic operations, and transport efficiency. Innovative transportation approaches
developed in higher education can have far-reaching implications for society. To tackle
these challenges, a comprehensive field study was conducted to evaluate the
transportation system at the main campus of the University of Kufa. The study collected
data on waiting, bus, commuter, and disembarkation stations to identify weaknesses
and shortcomings in the current transportation plan. Based on the findings, an
integrated transportation system was proposed to reduce travel time, improve
efficiency for faculty, staff, and students, and enhance safety. This research has critical
implications for universities and other complex transportation systems, underscoring
the importance of meticulous planning and management to ensure optimal
performance and efficiency.
