TRANSPORTATION SERVICES/NMT FACILITIES

Non-motorized transport (NMT) is often a key element of successfully encouraging clean urban transport. It can be a very attractive mode of transport for relatively short distances, which make up the largest share of trips in cities.

 

The key to reversing the trend towards more private vehicle use is making walking and cycling attractive, together with improving public transport. This can be done by a range of activities including construction of sidewalks and bike lanes, bike sharing programs, urban planning and pedestrian-oriented development.

NMT is a highly cost-effective transportation strategy and brings about large health, economic and social co-benefits, particularly for the urban poor
