Measuring the quality and extent of women's access to urban transportation(Case study: Southwest and Northeast of Mashhad)

In the first urban planning in the middle of the twentieth century, cities were traditionally considered to be segregated based on the separation of functions, meaning that women were more likely to be housework less naturally in urban spaces, also because urban architecture was in the hands of men. Women's needs for urban spaces were not considered, but this trend remained unchanged with increasing urbanization rates and the greater presence of women in urban spaces. Women have limited their active participation. On the other hand, the growing trend of cities with the rapid increase in motor vehicles, especially cars, and its widespread use in cities, especially Mashhad, has caused many problems such as severe environmental pollution, high traffic congestion. Excessive energy consumption has led to road insecurity and accidents. To reduce and solve these problems, the public transportation system has been set up by city managers as a powerful system. The purpose of this study is to measure the quality and enjoyment of women.The public transportation system (bus) is located in two areas, southwest and northeast. Therefore, in this research,using hierarchical analysis method and the best-worst and softest software method, quality assessment and evaluation of suggestions and solutions have been studied.It is the southwestern constituency (privileged areas) which includes two zones 11 and 9 with a normal weight of0.7and has a higher priority than the northeastern constituency (low-income areas) which includes areas 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Northeast is 0.2. This weight indicates a weak bus system in this area
