With the background of climate change and energy efficiency, environmental policy has developed to one of the top policy areas on the European level. Public transport is affected directly or indirectly by a whole range of legislation covering inter alia sustainable development, climate change, internalisation of external costs, energy efficiency, pollutant emissions, noise or urban mobility.

This study on different facets of mobility in Bangalore covers major parts of BBMP limits and also deals with Travel Time Index, Congestion Index, Safety Index , Mobility & Accessibility Measures. It recommends strategies for a better integrated land use and transport system and discusses the roles of various stakeholders in promoting them.

This paper explores the emergence, consolidation and challenges to India

Urban transport is an important component of the urban infrastructure system. A good urban transport system will increase productivity, enhance efficiency, ensure competition,
and promote urban economy. It will also facilitate social
interactions, provide people with accessibility to opportunities,
safeguard environment, set directions and pattern of land use

Even as automakers and suppliers struggle with the effects of a severe economic downturn, the global movement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions continues to gain momentum. This report is based on an 18-month research project into potential measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the use of passenger vehicles.

This report seeks to examine the merits of a range of different policies that offer the prospect of CO2 emissions reduction from road transport. In particular it considers the role of policies that target the

This study reviews regulatory instruments designed to reduce environmental externalities from the transport sector. The study finds that the main regulatory instruments used in practice are fuel economy standards, vehicle emission standards, and fuel quality standards.

Climate change is increasingly recognised as a key issue for the automotive sector. According to figures from the International Energy Agency, transport is responsible for around 18% of all carbon emissions, with autos (light-duty vehicles) accounting for approximately 10%.
