Green corridors, as one of the emerging aspects of urban design, play a pivotal role in driving sustainable transportation and shaping the visual and functional aspects of cities. This project begins by defining sustainable transportation as systems that provide mobility with low environmental impacts, while enhancing social, cultural, and economic aspects. Where sustainable transport does not only include technology and infrastructure, but also strategic planning, policies, and community engagement that support its development. The concept of streets was introduced as a crucial element in this project, defined as the visual and physical character of street spaces, including their arrangement, appearance, and interaction with human activity. Then the importance of green corridors was explored in detail. As linear streets or networks of green spaces, they provide pathways that not only facilitate human life movement but also ease non-mechanical human transportation, contributing to the multifunctionality of urban landscapes. Green corridors serve as the veins of the city, providing environmental benefits by preserving biodiversity and acting as a sustainable alternative to transportation. Through the review of previous studies and proposals, the benefits of green corridors in enhancing the city's identity, increasing both social and economic activity, reducing pollution, and encouraging active transportation methods such as cycling and walking have been highlighted. And also the reference to how well-designed street views contribute to the overall sustainability of transportation by improving accessibility, safety, and community well-being. However, these studies have been characterized by their inability to provide clear and sufficient knowledge regarding the design of environmentally friendly green corridors in the local context of the city of Diwaniya. Based on this, the project's problem was identified as the lack of comprehensive and clear knowledge of the components for designing environmentally friendly green corridors at the local level of the city of Diwaniya. The project aims to provide more comprehensive knowledge for designing environmentally friendly green corridors that can be effectively adopted by designers in general, and specifically serve the local experience of the city of Diwaniya. Achieving this goal required the adoption of a set of indicators for designing environmentally friendly green corridors, which were reached based on previously presented knowledge and studies. And redesigning one of the vital streets in the city of Diwaniya according to these indicators in an attempt to move towards sustainable transportation. Reaching the final conclusions Emphasizing the importance of integrating green corridors into urban planning. He emphasizes the need for multidimensional planning approaches that align street design aesthetics with the functions of sustainable transport networks, suggesting that future research should focus on developing quantitative and qualitative measures to assess the impact of green corridors on urban sustainability.
