Sustainable Transport

Sustainable transport refers to transportation systems and practices that are designed to minimize environmental impacts while meeting the needs of society for mobility. This concept emphasizes the use of modes of transport that are resource-efficient, reduce carbon emissions, and promote economic and social equity. Sustainable transport encourages the use of public transit, walking, cycling, and other low-emission vehicles, as well as the development of infrastructure that supports these modes. The goal is to create an integrated transportation system that enhances accessibility, reduces traffic congestion, improves air quality, and contributes to overall sustainability by balancing environmental health, economic viability, and social inclusion.
