This guide from the Institute for Transportation & Development Policy helps governments and planners develop a comprehensive plan for selecting batteries and charging technologies for electric buses.
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from transport is crucial to meet India’s climate action commitments and limit global warming to 1.5°C. A new report by ITDP and the University of California, Davis, “Compact Cities Electrified: India,” finds developing compact and dense cities that shift most trips to walking, cycling, and public transport while simultaneously pursuing rapid electrification of all vehicles is the solution.
Building on ITDP’s global expertise on parking policies, this report spotlights off-street parking as a costly and often overlooked area of urban planning that can impact vehicle use, how street space is prioritized, and even housing availability.
Low emission zones (LEZs) are a potentially impactful strategy for cities to reduce dependence on motor vehicles and offer clean, affordable, accessible alternatives. The Opportunity of Low Emission Zones report offers a closer look at LEZ strategies to provide context for decision-makers and planners interested in understanding the potential of these policies for their own cities.
For the urban transportation sector—one slice of the climate-change equation—the road to keeping below 1.5°C global warming involves both compact cities developed for walking, cycling
