Transport System Resilience
10 April 2024
Transport networks are vulnerable
Transport systems face multiple disruptions, from geopolitical tensions and climate change impacts to pandemics. Understanding these disruptions is crucial for strengthening their resilience.
Disruptions have spillover effects
Transport networks are interconnected, and transport disruptions in one part of the world can easily spread to other regions. Managing such spillover effects requires inter-regional co-operation.
Be systematic about resilience
The concept of transport resilience must be built into national-level policies, long-term plans, appraisal procedures, competition policies and transport indicators.
Safer Micromobility
27 March 2024
- Micromobility is becoming safer. But, an increase in severe injuries from e-scooter crashes is cause for concern. Overall, shared e-scooter crash risk is decreasing as their usage is increasing faster than injuries.
Safe infrastructure and vehicle design matter. A focus on rider behaviour and safety equipment must be complemented by better infrastructure and improved vehicle design – especially for e-scooters.
Reinforcing existing policies improves safety. Road safety measures also make micromobility safer – managing speed, providing training to road users and enforcing rules against impaired driving and riding.
The Future of Public Transport Funding
27 February 2024
- Fund public transport as a crucial part of a sustainable, decarbonised and accessible transport system.
- Formulate integrated funding strategies for future public transport services.
- Ensure effective co-ordination between levels of government when funding public transport investments.
- Improve the efficiency of public transport infrastructure investments and service provision.
- Adopt explicit fare policies and implement them via formal processes.
- Use structured fare policies for more equitable accessibility.
Improving the Quality of Walking and Cycling in Cities
14 February 2024
- Focus on improving the quality (not quantity) of walking and cycling in cities.
- Democratise mobility space to ensure citizens can travel more safely, healthily and in comfort.
- Incorporate violence reduction as a critical transport policy goal.
- Remove car blinders from transport appraisal methods and consider a broader range of alternatives.
- Remove moto-normative policies to increase the effectiveness of new pro-walking and cycling policies.
- Decouple walking and cycling to focus on the different needs of pedestrians and cyclists.
- Ensure access to high-quality collective transport to enable better walking and cycling.
Youth on the Move: Young People and Transport in the 21st Century
30 January 2024
- Include young people in transport planning and decision-making.
- Proactively shape youth mobility behaviour for long-term sustainable transport outcomes.
- Adopt “soft measures” to influence young people’s travel choices.
- Collect data on young people’s mobility patterns, needs and expectations to enhance policies and planning.

Safety Performance Indicators: Monitoring, Evaluating and Improving the Safe System
30 December 2023
How Governments Can Bring Low-Emission Trucks to Our Roads – and Fast
13 December 2023
- Do not allow technological uncertainty to delay action. Postponing investment decisions due to technological uncertainty could cost more in environmental damages than acting proactively to support technologies that already have a high likelihood of success.
- Decide and provide. Policy makers should support only a limited number of promising solutions to guide the market and avoid diluting funds.
- Support for battery-electric vehicles is a low-regret policy. Electric truck technologies have the greatest potential to be low-carbon and cost-competitive.
- Invest in charging infrastructure with care, but without delay. Deploying depot chargers and strengthening grids pre-emptively of demand are essential.
Perspectivas del Transporte del ITF 2023
10 December 2023
- Desarrollar estrategias globales para la movilidad y las infraestructuras futuras.
- Acelerar la transición a flotas de vehículos limpios.
- Aplicar políticas de cambio de modo de transporte y gestión de la demanda allí donde sean
más eficaces. - Considerar los beneficios adicionales para las zonas urbanas al evaluar las políticas.
- Reformar la fiscalidad de los vehículos para reflejar los costes externos de los nuevos parques
automovilísticos.
Using Safety Performance Indicators to Improve Road Safety: The case of Korea
10 December 2023
- Adopt safety performance indicators to gain deeper insights into road-safety challenges
- Incorporate safety performance indicators in long-term national road safety strategies
- Identify and prioritise road-safety focus areas that reflect local circumstances
- Deploy tailored safety performance indicators for at-risk groups
- Introduce comprehensive data collection guidelines and maintain methodological consistency
- Use safety performance indicators to monitor road-safety progress regularly
- Establish clear targets and implement a robust mechanism to integrate safety performance indicators in the policy-formulation process
New but Used: The Electric Vehicle Transition and the Global Second-hand Car Trade
4 December 2023
- Improve the traceability of internationally traded used cars.
- Avoid hampering exports of used electric vehicles to emerging economies.
- Ensure used cars for export meet clear roadworthiness criteria, including their emissions performance.
- Develop sustainable transport strategies in emerging economies to avoid their over-dependence on cars.
