Foreword

This Review is published at an important time for future policy and planning of transport investments. Transport accounts for around 60 per cent of all fossil fuels used on the planet, around 30 per cent of all energy use and an estimated 23 per cent of global CO2 emissions. To reduce these negative externalities, we need regional solutions today that will support sustainable development, solutions which are fuel efficient and which reduce pollution, congestion, accidents, and deaths on the roads, while meeting the needs of business, people and our planet.
