Sustainable transportation defined

A system of movement that is safe, equitable and environmentally sound, fits within the landscape and culture of a particular area, and balances local needs such as mobility, access and commerce, with global concerns such as human rights, resource conservation and ecological diversity.

 

Goals (the 'why are we doing this?')

• Significantly reduce crashes, pollution and congestion
  
• Help create transportation choices
• Diversify fuel systems
• Reconnect critical wildlife habitats
• Contribute to global sustainability
• Reduce the energy consumed by transportation systems
• Improve the health of people and communities
