Mr. Julian Sanchez Corredor research of Julián Sánchez Corredor focuses on sustainable urban mobility, intermodality, and road safety, integrating data-driven methodologies to improve public transportation systems and mobility planning in Colombian cities. His work highlights the social and technical dimensions of mobility through the study “Social Impacts and Road Safety in Intermodality: Case Study of the Ayacucho Tram in Medellín-Colombia,” published in the Journal of Urban Mobility (Elsevier, 2025), which evaluates user perception, modal inclusion, and safety outcomes in tram-integrated urban corridors. Complementing this, he developed the open-access dataset “Medellín Mobility and Perception Data” (DOI: 10.17632/8m67jmxrzj.1), encompassing over 15,000 mobility records for analytical and policy applications. His thesis, “Caracterización intermodal de la movilidad activa con el Tranvía de Ayacucho,” provided a comprehensive model of active and intermodal mobility behavior in Medellín’s urban transport corridor, emphasizing the role of public transport integration in sustainable city development. His research employs analytical tools like Power BI and R Studio to interpret user perception data, simulate traffic interactions, and identify strategies for safer and more inclusive mobility systems. Collectively, his contributions support evidence-based urban mobility planning and promote the adoption of intermodal and sustainable transport frameworks in Latin American contexts.
