| Background |
As a consequence of a late prioritization of public transport, cities in many low and middle income countries face growing traffic congestion, pollution and accident rates. They struggle to make their transport systems accessible to all users, and particularly to poorer households. Moreover, the transport sector has emerged as the fastest growing source of greenhouse gas emissions. Appropriate transport policies and investments hold the potential to enhance inclusive access, reduce the impact of transport on pollution and habitats, and help put economies on a low-carbon path. |
| Objectives |
The Mobility Multi-Donor Trust Fund informs transport policies and infrastructure projects with solutions for sustainable mobility and works with selected low and middle-income countries in implementing such solutions through context specific advisory and technical assistance. |
| Medium-term outcomes |
Improving the quality of investments in and performance of urban public transport systems Fostering integrated urban transport corridors and people-centered traffic management that prioritize public and non-motorized transport Increasing the usage of advanced digital technology in transport systems Enhancing railway policies in order to encourage competition and to enable financing for investment from the private sector |
| Results |
Expected results: Technical assistance and design reviews to improve the cost-effectiveness and financing of urban public transport Assessment of policies and recommendations to price and regulate urban road use Assessment of urban development plans and coordination with transport investment and policies Assistance to implement open data policies and big data techniques Assessment and advice on policy, regulation and governance of state owned rail enterprises |
