Transport failing - Globally
● Lack of access - Billions do not have affordable, safe access to socio -economic opportunities. - “Leave no one behind”
● Urban congestion - 6%+ GDP in some cities
● Rising transport greenhouse gas emissions - threaten achieving the Paris Agreement – 40% GHG emissions in cities from freight
● Air pollution - blights the lives of billions.
● Road safety - 1.3 million per year / 500 children per day
Tested, cost effective solutions available - not implemented at scale.
Governance challenge
Action - Precursors
● Transport problems and solutions rising on the international policy agenda
● Transport solutions part of public discourse (e.g. e-mobility, ICE phase out, urban cycling, # flightshame , urban access regulations)
● State and Non -State actors working together
● Paris Agreement compatible lending
• Avoid and Shift strategies
• Application of “ polluter pays ” principle (marginal social cost pricing)
• Elimination of fossil fuel subsidies (5,000,000,000,000 $ / year)
• Data for better policy making and implementation
• Coordination of policy action across levels of government - countries and cities
• Frameworks for “new” mobility modes – public policy impact of private sector -driven innovation
• Freight/logistics focus
• Integrated spatial planning and transport planning • Definition of sustainable transport investments / private sector financing models
• Cost effective solutions and innovation adapted to low -income countries and emerging economies - Informality
• Comprehensive action on aviation (avoid and shift ) and maritime emissions
Action - Missing
