Thanks @AdriánOrtega , if you have further information about this, I would be interested in reading more about this example.
-
Indeed, this tax represents a large proportion of transport funding in France
-
Unfortunately there are numerous examples of BRT projects which have not been properly integrated with existing systems, especially across Africa
-
Do you know which are the transport related targets?
-
Thank you for sharing this information @PetarStanić . This is helpful.
-
Integrating urban and transport planning is often one of the most pressing issues authorities need to address
-
Thank you @AnaTeresaVargasFrutos . I would be interested to know whether you were able to use the tool in the context of your city.

Thanks @DanielSharratt , which city are you referring to?
-
Thank you for sharing this @antonyCole

This is indeed the typical Transport 'Master Plan' which tends to focus on traffic flow issues.
-
Dear Paul, a Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) is indeed a substantial project in itself. We have worked with smaller cities who have developed 'light SUMPs'. The process is documented here: https://sump-plus.eu/
We have also undertaken visioning exercises with Maputo and Freetown. You can find further information here: https://www.t-sum.org/

Good point @DanawiryyaSilaksanti
The following paper presents more accurate data:
"Urban mobility transitions through GDP growth: Policy choices facing cities in developing countries"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0966692319308907
As well as data from the EU CREATE project: https://www.create-mobility.eu/
It presents data...

Thank you for sharing your experience @PetarStanić

Hi Clare, do you work with the DigitalMatatus team?
-
Very inspiring @PetarStanić . Grassroot organisations play a vital role in generating a momentum and 'pressure' from the bottom up.
-
Thank you @MarjanKhaleghi for sharing your experience of Nagoya. It is fascinating. Indeed, as Jan Gehl regarding cycle lanes: "Build it and they will come." This applies to most urban transport infrastructure.
-
Perhaps the next stage is more emphasis on the Avoid category through urban planning and digital accessibility? (see further information in week 3)
-
Thank you for sharing your views @AlfisahNurAini . Indeed, affordable, comfortable, and secure public transport, and active travel infrastructures (e.g. walking) is the backbone of a well functioning urban mobility system.
-
Clemence Cavoli made a comment
The majority of the respondents indicated that their city prioritises traffic flow, which reflects a policy-mindset focused on accommodating the demand for car-use. This is highly problematic as we will discuss as it leads to car-oriented urban development.
-
China's climate targets are to:
Peak carbon emissions before 2030.
Achieve carbon neutrality before 2060.
Reduce carbon intensity by over 65% from 2005 levels by 2030.
Increase the share of non-fossil fuels in primary energy consumption to 25% by 2030 -
Thank you for sharing your experience @JorgeEduardoTenorioGoicoechea

Clemence Cavoli replied to Sophie Wildbore-Hands
Dear @SophieWildbore-Hands , indeed, there are numerous options to improve sustainability in Jersey, including more frequent buses and improving options for active travel. I hope this course provides some ideas to improve planning processes.
-
Clemence Cavoli replied to Myrzabay Jetimov
Hello @MyrzabayJetimov . Thank you for your contribution. It is good to hear that you are interested in this topic. I will be curious to see the extent to which the planning techniques we cover in this course are applicable in cities in Kazakhstan.

Clemence Cavoli replied to Apoorva Sharma
Thank you @ApoorvaSharma . This is correct, walking or cycling could replace numerous short motorised trips in London.
-
Clemence Cavoli replied to Alfisah Nur Aini
Thank you for sharing information about Jakarta @AlfisahNurAini . Your suggestions to address the city's congestion and pollution issues seem sensible. 1) Offering good alternatives to private vehicle use (including active travel such as walking & cycling); 2) Incentivise use of public transport and active travel. 3) Discourage car-use. I would also recommend...

Welcome @AlfisahNurAini I hope this course is helpful. It will be good to discuss how relevant some of the topics are in the context of Jakarta.

Very interesting. Thank you for sharing this piece of information @PedroCadena . I would not be surprised if it is the case in most cities.
-
Thank you for sharing this information @PedroCadena . The % of greenhouse gas emissions coming from the transport sector is substantial in Bogota. The Mayor's strategy seems comprehensive. Do you know whether it focuses on walking/walkability? It seems to be lacking.

You make an important point @PaulKamill , which I partly address in the comment I left above

A change of narrative is often the first step towards a change in the dominant policy paradigm. However, as you point out, there is often a disconnect between the official policy narrative (or targets) - for instance, climate neutrality - and policy decisions/actions on the ground. In the UK for instance, there is a disconnect between the government's climate...

Clemence Cavoli replied to Lee Scott
Thank you for sharing your experience @LeeScott .
One of the most common issues across cities is the lack of enforcement/implementation (see section 2.6), often because the police force is centralised.
London devolved police powers to London's Met police. This contributed significantly to improving enforcement (e.g. traffic and parking management). The...

Thanks for sharing your experience @AnkurKumarSaiba
Existing and new highway infrastructure must include facilities for active travel and collective transport (e.g. protected pathways, cycle lanes, bus lanes).

Thanks Gustavo. There is still so much to do to improve walkability in cities. My colleague Paulo has done extensive work on this topic, in particular crossing facilities: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=L2gQ3XUAAAAJ&hl=en

Thanks for this clarification @GustavoBrantdeCarvalho and welcome to the course. I I am actively involved in urban mobility issues in Maputo via the T-SUM project https://www.t-sum.org/ If you are still involved in urban mobility issues in Maputo, it would be great to connect.

Thank you for sharing this information @TomSpeed . Contradictory policies are common at the local level and also at the national level (e.g. The UK national government aims to achieve ambitious climate targets whilst simultaneously investing in substantial highway infrastructure projects).
