Amongst cities in middle-income countries, Bogotá, Colombia and Guangzhou, China are two that may seem to be vastly different. Nevertheless, both cities are united in facing an urgent challenge: growing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions resulting from, among other sectors, their urban transport systems. Bogotá’s cars and vehicles emit a big share of the 14,000 tonnes ...Read MoreWith the Launch of Cairo’s Bikeshare, Cycling Gains Momentum In Africa
October 20, 2022
For both urban residents and tourists alike, bikeshare programs are being seen as an environmentally friendly and cost-effective transport option, particularly as rising fuel prices and emissions become a global concern. The bikeshare market is estimated to exceed $4.4 billion USD by 2026 as new technologies, operational improvements, and adjacent cycling economies have made cycling ...Read MoreSTA 2023 Nominees: Responsive Governance During the Pandemic
October 7, 2022
For the 2023 STA Nominees, there has been a marked shift in these cities’ perspectives on the pandemic’s challenges, as well as in the ways they are approaching opportunities for recovery and future resiliency. The 2023 Nominees began working towards the promise of a ‘new’ (and perhaps better) normal for urban life. These local governments ...Read MoreEnsuring More Equitable, Inclusive Mobility in Brazil and Beyond
September 26, 2022
The urban development model that has been promoted in most Brazilian cities has historically concentrated opportunities for employment, culture, and leisure in centrally-located areas where wealthier and predominantly White populations live. This model has also been responsible for rampant urban sprawl that continues to support investment in infrastructure that promotes the use of private vehicles, ...Read MoreTo Tackle Climate Change, Cities Need to Rethink Parking
September 20, 2022
It goes without saying that — for every car and vehicle trip — parking is viewed as a necessity from beginning to end. Since the advent of the motor vehicle, the development of parking storage has been made as much of a priority as highway and road infrastructure, perpetuating a ‘car culture’ that exists around ...Read MoreActionable Steps Towards Reclaiming Streets Across Africa
September 1, 2022
The growth of private vehicles in urban areas has, over the years, resulted in a transport planning system that focuses more on private vehicle travel and less on other sustainable modes of transport such as walking, cycling, and public transport. In many African cities where a majority of urban residents walk, cycle, or use public ...Read MoreBetter Together: Rapid Transit and Cycling Networks
August 25, 2022
Transportation is all about options. Integrated transportation systems that make mobility more accessible, more efficient, and more equitable are crucial to improving quality-of-life everywhere. Two critical components of a multi-modal transportation network are rapid transit systems and cycling infrastructure that connect with one another.Read MoreWe Need to Make Intersections Safer for Pedestrians and Cyclists
August 17, 2022
Globally, traffic crashes cause 1.3 million deaths yearly, and fatal and non-fatal crashes are estimated to cost economies approximately USD 1.8 trillion between 2015 and 2030. Safe intersection design is necessary to reduce both non-fatal and fatal traffic crashes and improve safety for all road users, including drivers. The following three safe intersection design approaches not ...Read MoreExploring the Intersection of Race and Mobility in Brazil
August 12, 2022
While wealthier, primarily White people live in the central regions of Brazil’s cities — closer to employment, opportunities, services, and transport networks — the majority of Black and lower-income people live further out with more barriers to everyday commuting. In addition to living farther from key transport systems, Black, brown and low-income Brazilians pay higher ...Read MoreThe Current Fuel Crisis is an Opportunity to Reshape US Cities
July 27, 2022
The first oil shock of 1973 was brought on by social and political forces that exposed the vulnerabilities of a global system overly reliant on fossil fuels and resource-intensive petroleum production. Everyday Americans witnessed the impacts firsthand, faced with skyrocketing gas prices and ripple effects across the economy for years to follow. Parallels can certainly be ...Read More
