10 Impacts of disasters and climate events Frequent disasters, extreme climate events, sea level rise- Thailand Flood, East Japan Earthquake Damage to transport infrastructure and affect services Potential impacts Bridges, coastal roads and rails, pavement, drainage, Planning, Design, Construction, Operation & Maintenance
11 Growing pattern of urban development Half of world s people live in town and cities 90% of world s urban expansion in developing countries Unsustainable pattern of growth of big and megacities Cities account for more that 2/3 of energy use and GHG emissions Car centered developments Lack of affordable public transport Cost of congestion- 2-5% of GDP Air pollution- health cost 2-4% of GDP Vicious cycle: more new cars- more new road more congestion 11
12 What are possible Policy Options? Integrated transport planning Improvement of public transportation Modal shift to energy efficient modes Travel demand management Congestion management Compact city planning Use of technology High speed rails: feasible alternative to air travel, 500 miles Resilient Infrastructure Social inclusion Extend reach of transport to vulnerable groups Provide affordable public transport 12
13 Some policies being implemented in countries (country reports) Sri Lanka- banning of two stroke three wheelers, fare subsides to school children, increasing use of hybrid vehicles, emission assessment Nepal: Kathmandu mass transit, sustainable urban transport project, fuel standards Viet Nam- Hanoi- BRT and MRT, MRT-Ho Chi Minh City Tajikistan: Fare subsidies in Dushanbe, improvement of infrastructure, NMT in Dushanbe- extending to other 3 cities Georgia: Tram link by 2016, test of electric vehicles in Tbilisi, fare subsidies Indonesia: ERP, BRT, MRT, fare subsidies Thailand: BRT, MRT, NMT, free public bus, alternate fuels, fuel standards Bhutan: NMT, improve fuel efficiency, fuel standards, improving public transport- high capacity buses 13
