All Transport

• Limit reporting requirements to data that are essential for carrying out public authority mandates.
• Co-ordinate new mobility data collection with existing data reporting and measurement efforts.
• Co-ordinate data reporting across all levels of government.
• Develop public authority capacity to collect, process and analyse new mobility data.

• Support fare decision-making with regular evaluation.
• Jointly optimise fare pricing and road user charging.
• Reduce the cost barrier for those most in need and simplify access to concession fares.
• Boost flexibility for existing services.
• Promote multimodality to increase public transport use.
• Consider data needs, transparency and inclusion principles when choosing ticketing technologies.

Recommendations for sustainable urban mobility management:

• Promote a balanced mix of transport modes for resilient transport systems that serve both residents and tourists. 

• Allocate budget and staff support to institutionalise the process of public consultation. 

• Adopt a supportive regulatory framework that allows co-ordination between local, regional, and national authorities, and private mobility service providers to implement SUMP measures.

• Clarify the relationship between SUMPs and other strategic land use and transport planning policies and processes.

Recommendations for mobility data management:

• Establish and maintain spatial databases independent of individual projects.

• Develop or secure adequate long-term spatial analysis capacity.

• Streamline data provision from national bodies.

• Establish data reporting requirements for transport service providers.

• Provide national-level guidance on household surveys.

• Standardise data collection and indicators at the national level. 

Recommendations to understand and monitor urban freight activity

• Cooperate with freight stakeholders to address data gathering challenges.

• Use surveys to collect freight data for indicators.

• Accessibility requires broader framing. Physical access is a crucial component of accessible transport services. But accessibility involves an intersection between many different policy areas and frames of reference. Focusing on one aspect is not sufficient to guarantee accessibility for all.
• People need sustainable options. People need opportunities to be available and accessible, and they need sustainable travel options to access them for sustainable accessibility to be a reality. Additionally, policies targeted at travel choices may be needed to change travel behaviours.
• Engage effectively with communities. To improve engagement with the people impacted by transport interventions, policy makers should consider a wide variety of citizen participation processes. The exact form of these processes will depend on what is most appropriate for the context.

• 为未来交通运输及燃料补充基础设施制定全面的发展战略
• 加速向清洁车辆转变
• 在最有效的地区实施交通模式转变和交通需求管理政策
• 评估政策时要考虑城区的额外收益
• 改革车辆税,捕获新车辆的外部成本

• 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.

• Seize the day! Take advantage of windows of opportunity to enact changes and set new goals.
• Line up! Align policies for promoting light mobility at the national, regional and local levels.
• Measure up! Assess potential interventions in support of light mobility and monitor and evaluate
• implemented policies to demonstrate impact.
• Get going! Improve walking conditions and local connectivity for improved access to opportunities.
• Go faster! Develop high-quality light mobility infrastructure for safe interactions with other traffic.
• Go further! Integrate collective transport, pedestrian spaces and light mobility infrastructure.
• Bring everyone along! Use communication campaigns and education programmes to inspire a change in attitudes and mobility behaviour.

• Replace “predict and provide” transport planning with a “decide and provide” approach.
• Use Covid-19 recovery to improve the physical and virtual accessibility of services and opportunities.
• Accelerate the reallocation of city space from cars to people.
• Decentralise and diversify transport services to cater for varying travel purposes and users.
• Empower local authorities with adequate funds and decision-making power to address post-pandemic transport challenges.

• Improve connectivity without increasing carbon intensity.
• Target regional linkages and sustainable growth in connectivity strategies.
• Complement connectivity improvements with initiatives to decarbonise fuel production and energy sources.
• Prioritise service improvements and land-use development that encourages public-transport use.
• Ensure urban mobility is affordable in North and Central Asia's largest cities.

• Design measures that mitigate the rise of transport emissions as demand grows in Southeast Asia and connectivity improves.
• Target maritime transport as a critical sector for decarbonising freight transport in Southeast Asia.
• Improved vehicle technologies will be important for decarbonising road transport as demand increases.
• Electrify rail networks to reduce emissions.
• Improve cross-border trade facilitation to enhance connectivity.
• Accelerate aviation's technology and fuel transition to reduce emissions.
• Leverage decarbonisation opportunities offered by urban transport.

• Set clear mitigation targets for the transport sector.
• Ensure national decarbonisation plans are fully reflected in the NDCs.
• Break down silos between transport and related sectors. Include all stakeholders.
• Enhance coordination of climate policy across national ministries.

• Align Covid-19 recovery packages to revive the economy, combat climate change and strengthen equity.
• Implement much more ambitious policies that will reverse the growth of transport CO2 emissions.
• Target different transport sectors with strategies that reflect their specific decarbonisation potential and challenges.
• Support innovation to accelerate the technological breakthroughs needed to decarbonise transport.
• Shift the priority to improving accessibility.
• Intensify collaboration with non-transport sectors and between public and private actors.
