Sustainable Urban Mobility and Climate Change

4th Connective Cities Asian Event - Practitioners' Workshop

Übersicht

Reducing Air Pollution by Climate-Friendly Means of Urban Transport

Transport and the resulting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are a major contributor to climate change. Therefore, the transport sector – as the second largest emitter after electricity and heat production – provides an outstanding opportunity to address climate change. Low-carbon transport policies can foster, among others, better air quality, improved accessibility and mobility, road safety, decreased traffic noise as well as energy efficiency.

The workshop aims to strengthen the exchange of experiences among Asian cities as well as with experiences from Germany, to identify good practice examples from the region and from Germany that can be adapted to other cities and regions around the world, to provide peer-to-peer advisory services for ongoing challenges in a creative and interactive workshop environment as well as to prepare the planning of joint projects which address sustainable urban mobility.

Ergebnisse

To date Asia is facing a passenger and freight transport dominated road mode amidst current rapid urbanisation processes – with a large amount of urban growth still to come. Often infrastructure investments focus on road expansion rather than on alternative means of transport. As a result non-motorised transport (NMT) tends to be marginalised. This leads to heightened levels of traffic congestion and other problems associated with rising levels of motorisation.

Urban growth pattern that focus on climate-friendly transport policies and technologies, play therefore an important role in achieving sustainable urban mobility. Effective change is required not only in regard to the volume of emissions but also in the ability of the transport system to operate under predicted climate change effects. Promoting behavioural change via modal shifts complements and reinforces technological developments.
