The first part of the report considers how urban transport can be used as an instrument of urban development and poverty reduction. Chapter 2 discusses how transport reduces poverty. Chapter 3 examines how urban transport policies can be focused more specifically on meeting the needs of the poor but touches on other transport related aspects of the quality of life of poor people. Chapter 4 considers the urban environment, focusing on air pollution to which the poor are particularly vulnerable, while Chapter 5 considers problems of personal safety and security. The second part of the report considers how the objectives can be pursued by using a range of instruments. Chapter 6 considers the provision and management of road infrastructure. Chapter 7 discusses road based public transport, including the role of the informal sector. Chapter 8 considers the role and limitations of mass transit. Chapter 9 pays special attention to non-motorized transport. Chapter 10 raises the issues of pricing and financing, and Chapter 11, looks at institutional arrangements. Finally, Chapter 12 discusses the implications for the instruments and lending strategies of the Bank.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO SLUM AREASAIR POLLUTIONAMBIENT AIRAMBIENT AIR QUALITYBICYCLE MASTER PLANBICYCLE TRANSPORTBICYCLE TRAVELBICYCLESBICYCLISTSBOTTLENECKSBUDGET CONSTRAINTSBUS LANESBUS OPERATIONSBUS TRANSPORTBUSWAYSCAR OWNERSHIPCARBON DIOXIDECARBON MONOXIDECARSCDSCITY DEVELOPMENTCITY DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIESCITY GOVERNMENTSCITY SIZECITY TRANSPORTCOMPREHENSIVE URBAN TRANSPORTCOMPREHENSIVE URBAN TRANSPORT STRATEGYCONGESTIONCONGESTION PRICINGCROSS-SUBSIDYCYCLINGDECENTRALIZATIONDECONCENTRATIONDEMAND MANAGEMENTDIESEL FUELEFFICIENCY OF TRANSPORTELECTRONIC ROAD PRICINGEMPLOYMENTENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTSENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTIONEXTERNAL COSTS OF ROAD TRANSPORTFARE INTEGRATIONFARE INTEGRATION BETWEEN MODESFARE POLICIESFARE REDUCTIONSFARESFINANCIAL PERFORMANCEFINANCING OF INFRASTRUCTUREFIXED COSTSFRAMEWORKFUEL ADULTERATIONGOOD TRAFFIC MANAGEMENTINCOMEINTEGRATION OF TRANSPORT INTERVENTIONSINTERSECTIONSJOURNEYJOURNEY TO WORKKILOMETERS PER HOURLAND USELARGE CITIESLIGHT RAPID TRANSITMASS RAPID TRANSITMASS RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEMSMASS TRANSITMASS TRANSIT SYSTEMSMEDIUM-SIZE CITIESMEGACITIESMETRO SYSTEMSMOBILITYMODAL INTERCHANGEMODES OF TRANSPORTMOTOR VEHICLEMOTORCYCLESMUNICIPAL BUDGETSMUNICIPAL DEVELOPMENTMUNICIPAL TRANSPORTNITRIC OXIDENITROGEN DIOXIDENITROUS OXIDENMTNOISENONMOTORIZED TRANSPORTNOT PRIVATIZATIONOPERATING COSTSPARATRANSITPARKINGPARTICULATE MATTERPASSENGERPASSENGER TRANSPORTPASSENGERS PER HOURPAVEMENTPAVINGPEAK DIRECTIONPEDESTRIANSPOLICEPRIMARY ROADSPRIVATE PARTICIPATIONPROFITABILITYPUBLIC TRANSPORTPUBLIC TRANSPORT INTEGRATIONPUBLIC TRANSPORT PRICINGPUBLIC TRANSPORT SERVICEPUBLIC TRANSPORT SERVICE PLANNINGPUBLIC TRANSPORT TO ALL INCOME GROUPSPUBLIC TRANSPORT WITH CONFIDENCERAPID TRANSIT SYSTEMROAD ACCIDENTSROAD CAPACITYROAD CONGESTIONROAD FUNDSROAD INFRASTRUCTUREROAD SPACEROAD USEROADSROLE OF MASS RAPID TRANSITSAFETY NETSAFETY NETSSERVICE IMPROVEMENTSSERVICE LEVELSSERVICE QUALITYSLUMSSOCIAL ACTIVITIESSOCIAL EXCLUSIONSOCIAL SECTORSPEEDSTAKEHOLDER PARTICIPATIONSTAKEHOLDERSSUBSIDIARYTAXATIONTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETRAFFICTRAFFIC MANAGEMENTTRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AGENCYTRAFFIC PLANNINGTRAFFIC PRIORITIESTRAFFIC VOLUMETRANSPORT CAPACITYTRANSPORT DEPARTMENTTRANSPORT DEVELOPMENTTRANSPORT IMPROVEMENTSTRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURETRANSPORT MODETRANSPORT OPERATORSTRANSPORT PLANNINGTRANSPORT POLICYTRANSPORT SAFETYTRANSPORT SECTORTRANSPORT SYSTEMTRIPSTRUCKSTRUST FUNDSTUNNELSURBAN AREASURBAN BUSURBAN BUS SECTORURBAN DEVELOPMENTURBAN ENVIRONMENTURBAN GROWTHURBAN POORURBAN POPULATIONURBAN POVERTYURBAN PUBLIC TRANSPORTURBAN RAILURBAN RAIL DEVELOPMENTSURBAN ROADURBAN ROAD ACCIDENTSURBAN ROAD DECAYURBAN ROAD MAINTENANCEURBAN ROAD SYSTEMURBAN ROADSURBAN SECTORURBAN STRUCTUREURBAN TRANSPORTURBAN TRANSPORT COORDINATIONURBAN TRANSPORT PORTFOLIOURBAN TRANSPORT PROJECTSURBAN TRANSPORT SECTORURBAN TRANSPORT STRATEGYURBAN TRANSPORTATIONURBANIZATIONVEHICLE INSPECTIONVEHICLE MAINTENANCEVEHICLE OWNERSHIPVEHICLESWALKINGWHEELSWORK JOURNEYS URBAN TRANSPORTURBAN DEVELOPMENTPOVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGIESURBAN ENVIRONMENTGLOBAL WARMINGURBAN AIR POLLUTIONROAD MAINTENANCETRAFFIC SAFETYPASSENGER TRANSPORTNONMOTORIZED TRANSPORTROAD TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMSTRANSPORT PRICINGCAPACITY BUILDINGENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONWorld Bank10.1596/0-8213-5148-6
