| Abstract |
Achieving environmentally sustainable transport (EST) is one of the major challenges that OECD countries are facing. To this end, a new policy approach is needed. Recognising this need, the OECD initiated the project on EST to give some precision to the concept through the use of criteria which can be quantified and have environmental significance. In the course of this project, it has become evident that policy responses to transport-related environmental impacts will need to bridge the gap between technology and behaviour, between individual mobility and public transport and between the movement of vehicles and the provision of new mobility and logistical services. As part of the project, a workshop was held on Innovation for sustainable transportation in Berlin on 27-28 September 1999. This workshop on Innovation for EST explored practical examples for passenger and freight transport where this gap is bridged. Over 50 participants to the workshop included transport industry and service sector representatives, transport researchers, and representatives of environmental and transport government agencies; a directory of participants with contact information is included. 163 p. |
