About Inclusion, universal access, and empathy are key to building mobility systems that serve all members of society. It is vital to prioritize the needs of underrepresented groups — such as women, the elderly, children, and people with disabilities — through participatory decision-making in planning and delivering mobility infrastructure. Ensuring accessibility and universal design is…

About Addressing the climate crisis will require rapid, sustained transformation in every country and every sector of industrial activity. In The Compact City Scenario – Electrified report, researchers from ITDP and the University of California, Davis (with support from the ClimateWorks Foundation) modeled the global changes that will be necessary to decarbonize urban passenger transport. The…

About Between 2013 and 2019, the city of Chennai, India designed and built footpaths on more than 100 km of streets. Using data collected in 2019, ITDP found that between 9% and 29% of people walking on the improved footpaths would have used a private motorized mode if the footpaths had not been improved. As…
About This case study report on the City of Paris, France, the 2023 Sustainable Transport Award (STA) winner, dives into the bold policies and actions the city took to redesign its streets, spurring a modal shift in urban transport to encourage more cycling and walking. Adjusting to the surge in active mobility triggered by the…

About The Atlas of Sustainable City Transport is an online data dashboard that displays indicators of sustainable and inclusive urban passenger transport. The Atlas includes measurements of nine indicators for over 1,000 metropolitan areas, as well as measurements over 40,000 of legal jurisdictions and districts. These indicators do not just measure infrastructure: they measure what…
About Electric bikes, or e-bikes, are close substitutes for cars and two-wheelers because they cover longer distances with less effort. Thus, e-bikes will play a key role in shifting passenger and freight trips away from high-polluting private vehicles and generating fewer emissions if used at scale. While vehicle electrification has focused primarily on large, high-polluting vehicles…
