The current research aims to compare the global sustainable transportation assessments in order to reach the criteria and indicators which affect sustainable transportation and its requirements,  that, in turn, ‌affect the urban fabric and reduce the negative effects of the modern city. Through the analysis of the most reliable global systems ‌and  some of previous studies and projects, the research paper    identifies a set of standards for those systems with ‌regard to sustainable transport, which directly affect the shape of urban fabric, and which contribute to providing necessary ‌physical infrastructure for the effective functioning of sustainable transport systems within these communities.
