| description |
The Global Mobility Report frames the
transport agenda around four global goals: universal access,
efficiency, safety and green. Unless those four goals are
pursued simultaneously, mobility will not be sustainable for
current and future generations. For example, policy
decisions must not prioritize universal access interventions
without considering the implications they may have on
efficiency, safety, and green. Deviating from any of the
goals will compromise the achievement of sustainable
mobility. At stake is the fact that none of these goals are
independent, but they are all interconnected. In many cases,
there are synergies among pairs of goals, or even across all
four. Synergies occur when projects and policies help
achieve more than one goal at a time. Butin other cases,
advancing the agenda on one goal may hinder another.
Therefore, synergies shouldbe captured and apparent
trade-offs should be managed. By acknowledging these
interconnections and managing them appropriately, mobility
will be able to generate more benefits for society,
strengthening its role as a driver of social inclusion and
economic competitiveness, with the least impact on safety
and the environment. This note provides examples of the
synergies and trade-offs a policy-maker should consider and manage. |
