The paper presents the development of a traffic systems management course aiming to prepare graduates to deal with the emerging rapid changes and challenges in urban travel demand and supply in the Palestinian territories. The paper also shows how the course prepares graduates to adapt the global shift in philosophy in dealing with the traffic congestion towards improving the efficiency of existing facilities. The course trains the students to design and evaluate low-cost, short-term, and quick-to-implement strategies for enhancing the traffic conditions and facilitating the achievement of sustainable built environment.
