The sustainable transport pathway: a holistic strategy of five transformations (Loo, Tsoi) Flashcards

1
Q

what is the five transformation concept?

A

involves radical and proactive policy-making, recognizing that one-size-fits-all policies may not work, and understanding that a sustainable transport strategy should encompass various aspects of people’s daily lives.
the goals is to decouple transport intensity from economic growth and undesirable impacts from transport production while changing composition of transport volume to promote dematerialization

Q

Five transformations: city transformation

A

From national to individual:
- increasing land-use diversity and development density
- Promoting transit-oriented development
- tailoring TOD to local context
- making short distance daily trips

Q

Five transformations: Economic

A

aims to mitigate negative externalities. two strategies:
1. countries should shift towards high-value-added industries, reducing transport volume and negative externalities per unit of income.
2. sustainable freight logistics network covering port-inland distribution

intermodalism: enhances transport efficiency and reduces externalities by encouraging modal shifts from trucks to railways or pipelines

Q

Five transformations: modal split

A

aims to encourage the use of public transport and limit the growth of car use
1. enhancing public transit ridership
2. enhancing multi-modal connectivity (should encourage seamless travel between various transit locations and destinations)
