Course Brief: In the past two decades, transport projects have played a pivotal role in economic development and poverty alleviation. However, transport strategies must now focus on confronting the complex and urgent consequences of our own success. This course seeks to answer the questions, What new priorities are required to address the social, political, and environmental consequences of two decades of transport and infrastructure development? What strategies are required to shift transport-development resources to ensure efficient multimodal transport, improved rural linkages, and better urban transport?

The course takes transport strategy beyond intercity highways and focuses on resolving the new priorities: air pollution, traffic congestion, safety, efficiency, affordability, and trade. It challenges participants to prepare a localized transport strategy with an emphasis on attention to air and water pollution, alternative transport modes and themes (urban transportation, rural roads, multimodal transport), synergies across sectors, knowledge sharing, private sector participation, attention to governance and corruption issues, and building up the sector’s monitoring and evaluation efforts to align them with the new strategy.
