Abstract

The purpose of this study is to define and explore the relationship between circular economy policies and mechanisms in sustainable and participatory transportation systems. The study depended on a descriptive analytical approach, through questionnaire data that was collected from participatory and sustainable transportation users such as (Uber, Didi, In driver, SWVL). Statistical tools such as (Excel) have been used for data analysis to determine the scientific contribution and integration between the relationship of circular economy, sustainable and participatory transportation systems through highlighting private vehicle trips to reduce carbon emissions, resource improvement, save time and cost. The outstanding results of the study present the positive relationship between the environmental field and the participatory transportation system through raising awareness of reducing private vehicle use. Circular economy policies can be implemented in various fields such as industries, they support sustainable and participatory transportation systems. High environmental awareness can lead to participatory transportation system preferences.
