30 Years of ITDP

In 2015, ITDP is celebrating our 30th birthday. Over the past three decades, ITDP has worked in over 100 cities in more than 35 countries. Through our work, we’ve designed, built and implemented sustainable transport systems that save time, money and improve quality of life for millions. See below for impacts of our work, an interactive timeline of our history, and more.
