4. SLoCaT’s Role in Promoting Sustainable Low Carbon Transport Universal Access to Clean, Safe and Affordable Transport Sustainable Transport Policy Sustainable Transport Finance Sustainable Transport Programs and Projects • Sustainable Development Policy Processes: • SG Post 2015 Global Development Agenda • Rio+20 Follow-up (SDGs) • Climate Change Policy Processes: • Implementation AWG-LCA • AWG-ADP (Durban Platform) • GEF 6 • Regional EST Forums: • Asia • Africa • Latin America SLoCaT Members SLoCaT

5. Part 2 Problem setting

6. Continued Rapid Motorization • By 2015 Non-OECD will overtake OECD in vehicle market • China, now already the largest vehicle market

7. Don’t overlook freight Freight OECD 2010-2050 Freight non-OECD 2010-2050

8. Urban Access Over 50% of urban trips in many of the African cities are on foot

9. Rural Access • Rural road transport in Africa costs 3 to 5 times more than main road transport • Only one in three rural Africans has access to an all-season road. Those facing more than eight hours of travel to an urban center are effectively trapped in subsistence agriculture 1st Mile Farm/household Primary market Wider markets

10. Air Pollution – Particulate Matter Globally: 3.2 million premature deaths and over 74 million years of healthy life lost Asia: 2.1 million premature deaths and 52 million years of healthy life lost 2010 Global Burden of Disease, the Lancet 2013

11. Estimated population-weighted ambient air pollution levels - PM2.5 1990 → 2010: 10% increase in global population-weighted PM2.5 1990 → 2010: 50% increase in China population-weighted PM2.5

12. Climate Change • Transport sector to contribute 21% of emission reduction to ensure 2 DGS by 2050

13. Climate Change: Black Carbon Diesel Exhaust Contains a Mix of Pollutants: Soot particles (PM), metals, smog-forming gases, carcinogens and many other chemicals - 75% of Diesel PM is black carbon • UNEP/ WMO Joint assessment: “We estimate that black carbon…is the second most important human emission in terms of its climate-forcing in the present-day atmosphere” • 16 measures could reduce global warming by 0.5oC (0.2-0.7oC) in 2050, if implemented by 2030 (Diesel clean-up among the key measures) • Complementary, annual health and crop benefits: • 2.4 million premature deaths (0.7-4.6 million) avoided; and • Avoided loss of 52 million tonnes (30-140 million) of maize, rice, wheat and soybean

14. Road Safety • 1.3 million deaths per year, 20-50 million injuries • 8th leading cause of death, 5th in 2030 unless effective action is taken • Economic cost $ 2,240 billion, 3% of annual GDP

15. Congestion Cost of congestion in USA estimated at $ 104 billion annually Congestion rapidly becoming worse in developing world!

16. Part 3 Solutions

17. Paradigm shift on development of Transport Predict and Provide Build Roads to promote economic and social development Then Road safety 1.3 million deaths Air Pollution 3 million deaths (large part transport) Climate change – transport GHG fast growing Congestion Access not inclusive – large groups no access (urban and rural) Negative externalities of old paradigm: 6-10% of GDP Access: (Avoid + Shift + Improve) Now Expand/Improve Transport infrastructure and services Avoid unnecessary motorized transport Shift Transport to most effective mode (people and goods) Improve environmental performance transport : + +

18. Travel Demand Management • Vehicle quota’s in Singapore, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou • Congestion charging in Singapore, London, Stockholm, Milan

19. Bus Rapid Transit

20. Public Bike Schemes China: 119 Bike sharing Programs in 100+ cities with 500,000+ bicycles Wuhan – largest in the world – 94,000 bikes

21. Fuel Economy

22. Electric Vehicles Electric 2-wheelers now- China, Asia Electric 4-wheelers later, no global leader

23. Integrated Approach Improve road safety Improving Access (Infrastructure + services for all modes) through Avoid-Shift- Imrove Reduce air pollution Lessen congestion Is cheaper Emit fewer GHGs IEA: A-S-I based approach can save $50 Trillion by 2050 because of reduced vehicle/fuel cost – infrastructure – operating costs

24. Part 4 Transport and sustainable development

25. Transport and the Millennium Development Goals Transport Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger Passenger Achieve Universal primary education Promote gender equality and empower women Reduce Child Mortality Improve Maternal Health Combat HIV/AIDS, Malaria and other dieseases Ensure Environmental Sustainability Freight Develop a Global Partnership for Development

26. Transport@Rio+20 Bike ride in support of sustainable, low carbon transport. June 8, 2012 • Sustainable transport integrated in the outcome document: “transport and mobility are central to sustainable development” • 15 voluntary commitments on knowledge, capacity, policy and financing: $ 175,000,000,0000

29. SLoCaT Submission to Open Working Group on Sustainable Development Goals Universal Access to Safe, Clean and Affordable Transport for All Urban households are able to access jobs, goods and services within 30 minutes by public transport and/or walking and cycling and rural households have access to all weather roads; Target Access Economic Traffic related deaths are cut in half by 2025 with an ultimate vision of near zero fatalities; Social Target Air pollution from passenger and freight transport is halved by 2025 and GHG emissions from transport peak globally latest by 2020 with an ultimate vision of 40-60% reductions by 2050 compared to 2005 levels. Target Environ-mental

30. How to look at transport in post 2015 context ? Do not look at transport solely through energy lens ! Acknowledge and respect institutional context of transport sector! Acknowledge economic (formal and informal) importance of transport! How to optimize transport’s unique contribution? Combine enabling role with reduced negative externalities Transport is more than infrastructure !

31. Enabling Global Institutional Framework “UN-Transport or Sustainable Transport4ALL” SLoCaT Partnership Develop political momentum on sustainable transport UN Friends of Sustainable Transport Oriented towards scaling up “SG High Level Group on Sustainable Transport” Sustainable Transport Action Network Multi-stakeholder cooperation Regional Environment-ally Sustainable Transport Forums UN coherence
