Transforming Urban Mobility: Components of Transport Planning for Sustainable Cities
This course discusses different types of public transport that can be employed to make urban transport more sustainable. It examines the Avoid-Shift-Improve (ASI) framework – particularly the ‘Shift’ and ‘Improve’ dimensions – as key components of a sustainable urban mobility strategy. This course elaborates on some of the key components of sustainable urban mobility, including the instruments of traffic demand management and the different types of public transport, including metro, tramway, bus rapid transit, cable car, and other means of travel.
This course is intended for transport and city planning practitioners in the Global South, including in Africa, South America, and Asia. This includes academics, researchers, students, and those working in national and city authorities, consultancies, and civil society. It will have wider interest for other interested stakeholders and members of the public, including for those in the Global North.
This course was developed by the UCL (University College London), Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH (English: German Agency for International Cooperation GmbH), and Transformative Urban Mobility Initiative (TUMI).
