Steering a Green, Healthy, and Inclusive Recovery Through Transport
Summary
This report, produced with the Transport Decarbonisation Alliance (TDA), analyzes global stimulus funds committed to the transport sector between March 2020 and February 2021 to evaluate their impact on climate, health, safety, and equity goals.
Key insights
- Between March 2020 and February 2021, approximately US$298 billion in global stimulus funds were committed to the transport sector, with about 44% of those funds allocated to subsectors that have positive implications for sustainability and climate goals.
- The report identifies five primary action areas for public-private participation and transport decarbonization: rail, vehicle electrification, public transport, research and development (R&D), and walking and bicycling. Interventions in these areas are intended to reduce air pollution, improve road safety, increase equity, create jobs, and decarbonize transport.
