A thesis on the city of 30, which sees Olbia as a pioneer in Italy, and sustainable mobility policies: this is the choice of a young Cagliari native, Alessia Secchi, who earned a bachelor's degree in City, Regional, and Landscape Planning from the School of Architecture of the University of Florence.
The study "Spatial Planning for Active and Intermodal Mobility Beyond Optimism: A Critical Analysis of Resistance and Spatial Justice in Implementation. The Case of Olbia" places the city at the center of an in-depth analysis of the future of sustainable mobility.
"The research recognizes Olbia's pioneering role in Italy," reads a statement from the Municipality, "highlighting how the city has chosen to treat soft mobility not simply as accessibility, but as a true transportation system. The study also analyzes the use of innovative tools that have allowed us to map travel habits and critical road safety issues."
The study also includes interviews with Mayor Settimo Nizzi and the Municipality's mobility manager Sergio Usai.
"We are delighted that Olbia has been chosen for an academic project as a case study and example of innovation in active mobility," commented Mayor Settimo Nizzi. "The thesis highlights our city's ongoing commitment to building safer, more inclusive, and sustainable spaces. We extend our sincere congratulations to Alessia on her achievement and on her outstanding academic pursuits."
