Book Description
The toolkit presents a discourse on some of the best practices to achieve energy efficiency in transport through the lens of three policies: (i) promote public discussions on new mobility solutions, for instance, autonomous vehicles, e-mobility, and on-demand transportation; (ii) expand public transport infrastructure; and (iii) plan for integrated multimodal transport networks. The toolkit aims at bridging the gap between the transport and energy sectors when seeking to achieve universal, efficient, safe, and green mobility while developing sustainable, and energy-efficient transport projects.

Book Description
Our world is changing fast. Countries’ transport systems, which have long been shaped by project-by-project considerations, must help achieve higher-level goals for the well-being of mankind, as embodied by the UN's Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Climate Agreement. New forces impose greater effectiveness in the way public choices are made, such as making better use of data and technologies, adopting a more inclusive and participatory approach to decision making, and addressing social concerns about equity. Transport practitioners and country decision-makers have been looking for structured and coherent guidance about ways to adjust to these new dynamics and change the trajectory of transport system. This book examines the rationale for and details an innovative approach for public decision-making to expedite the pace to sustainable mobility.
