Drastic reductions in transport emissions and improved access to integrated transport systems worldwide are urgently required to achieve decarbonised pathways. Wide-ranging challenges have put the already-elusive progress towards the SDGs and the Paris Agreement at increased risk. Without more ambitious policies towards structural and systemic transformation, transport emissions could grow as much as 50% by 2050. At the same time, climate change greatly increases the vulnerability of populations as well as transport systems. Beyond the often heavy human toll, extreme weather events can also have severe impacts on transport-related infrastructure. To address this reality, systemic transformations are urgently needed globally in how people and goods are transported. Collective, active and electrified transport is key for a more equitable, accessible, healthy, green, sustainable and resilient transport future.
