The
hardest social and environmental challenges of our time is the managing the
Mobility of people. The countries which have faster growth rate like China,
Africa, Southeast Asia, billions of the prolonged have very higher expectations
and mobility aspirations. It is estimated that by 2030 the passenger traffic
will exceed 80,000 billion passenger kilometers.
Urbanism
works when it creates journey as desirable as the destination!
The
sustainable mobility is define as better provision of infrastructure and
services to support the movement of goods and people. The Sustainable urban
mobility means the provisions of things which required for better urban
settlement, the lifestyle of urban people, their demands and consideration.
Having
a long-term perspective on the sustainability is a defining factor in the
future of mobility. The transport was not endorsed as a distinct global
Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), largely because the sector could not talk
with one voice to influence this global process.
Improved
mobility for citizens could make cities could be more attractive and
competitive. Tackling congestion, improving air quality, sustainability in most
cities will require substantial changes in the transport system and operations,
and in the mobility behaviour of people.
Public and other transport services, timetables, ticketing, and interchanges
are not always well connected. Innovation of thinking of public private sectors
cooperation and how to effectively engage the citizens in Sustainable urban
mobility programs. The Sustainable urban mobility plan is the planning of local
and regional authorities for better and effective Sustainable urban mobility
planning. This plan encourage to switch towards more Sustainable means of
transport and integration of balance development modes.
A
city’s environment is shaped not only by people who have an important influence
but by everyone who lives or works there!
