Welcome to the third special issue of the contemporary international journal Ekisticsand the New Habitat: The problems and science of human settlements.It is with a deep sense of purpose that, on behalf of the international board of editors,I introduce this special issue: Cities and Transport in the Mediterranean Region (Part1 of 2). Led by transport planner, Prof. Dr George A. Giannopoulos, ProfessorEmeritus Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and Corresponding Member of theAcademy of Athens, this issue of two Parts is testimony to the power of Ekistics tobring together a range of contributors whose extended abstracts and short papersfocus on the Mediterranean region. It is rooted in a combination of perspectives thatallow readers to clearly perceive the interconnected nature and shared concerns ofthe cities and transport networks in this region defined by its seas.
