| description |
Given the increasing importance of the
urban transport sector, the World Bank decided to explore
the feasibility of setting up a possible urban
accessibility/mobility index. The purpose of such an index
would be to provide an indicator / measurement, of how urban
transport systems in different cities compared to one
another, and how the transport system developed in each
individual city. The aim is to provide client cities and
countries, along with the World Bank and other institutions,
with some evidence-based information. It is for this reason
that the Bank decided to develop a suitable index. However,
urban transport has multiple dimensions, and cannot be
comprehensively assessed by a single indicator. There is an
acute lack of reliable data on different aspects concerning
urban transport. Therefore, a compromise was decided upon,
in order to develop an index that was both comprehensive and
practical. The compromise required that data for the index /
indicators should be easy to collect, easy to interpret and
understand, and replicable from one city to another. It was
also essential that the data be regularly updated and easily
available. The core urban transport policy of the Bank is to
help countries and cities develop policies that favor public
transport and non-motorized transport modes, versus private
cars and motorcycles. The outline design of the urban
accessibility/mobility index explored in this feasibility
stage report, has been envisaged to indeed reflect these objectives. |
