Sustainable transport infrastructure planning

The course is an international online course in strategic sustainable transport infrastructure planning, featuring guest speakers from leading countries known for their expertise in target-oriented planning.

Project summary

The course is focused on target-oriented sustainable infrastructure planning within the framework of the United Nations’ Sustainability Development Goals. As shown by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), researchers and many countries; the current trajectory of increasing road traffic is incompatible with climate objectives and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. To reach these goals we must start planning for a transport infrastructure within the framework of sustainability.

The primary audience for this course includes professionals working at national and regional authorities responsible for strategic transport infrastructure planning in Europe. Combining best practices, test arenas and knowledge from the most advanced countries in Europe, this course is at the forefront of sustainable infrastructure planning.

Context

At present, strategic transport infrastructure planning is based on a forecast of increased traffic, hindering the achievement of climate objectives and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Challenge

Expected outcome

After the course, participants should have gained an understanding of target-oriented planning that can be used for infrastructure planning within the framework of sustainability.
