• Transport planning is an exercise of evolving policies and strategies that give
a rational direction to activities towards fulfilling a set of goals and
objectives in Transport.
• Transportation planning is an integral part of overall urban planning and
requires a systematic approach.

Growing Economy:
Road Safety:
Increased Car Ownership
Increased Traffic Volumes
Increased congestion
Increased speed
Increased conflicts among modes
Increased accidents and fatalities
5
Urban Sprawl:
More car dependency
Increased trip lengths
High costs for extending infrastructure
and services
Energy Consumption
Transport consumes 30% of total energy
Increased demand for fossil fuel
Increased GHG emissions
6
Climate Change:
Global warming
Higher emission levels
Air and noise pollution

Urban Transport Planning Approaches
8
Traditional Approach
Development
of townships
far from the
city center
Homogenous form.
Predominantly
residential. No mixed
use
Connected to the
city center by
broad roads,
encourages
automobile use
Ad-hoc
development;
no public
transport, NMT
networks
planned

Traditional Approach

Sustainable Approach
Sustainable transport refers to any
means of transport with low
impact on the environment, and
includes walking and cycling, as
as well as technology to move
people, goods, and information in
ways that reduce its impact on the
environment, the economy, and
society
Efficient, Equitable, and Environmentally friendly transport !
11
• Access: The City should be designed for
people, not cars. It should be at least as
convenient to live in a city without a
personal motor vehicle as with one
• Equity: Highest priority should go to
public transport, walking,
motorized vehicles
and
non-
• Environment: Prevention of air and noise
pollution
• Economy: Users of cars and motorcycles
should be charged for the full economic,
environmental, and social costs of their
transportation.
• Integrated Planning approach within a
comprehensive policy framework.
• Public participation and transparency:
It is important that the public be
consulted in planning process
12
SUTP – STRATEGIES
AVOID
Avoid: Avoiding or reducing trips
Shift: Shifting to more environmentally
friendly modes
Improve: Improving vehicle and fuel
technology of all modes of transport to
improve environmental efficiency from
each kilometer travelled
Reducing the need to travel
SHIFT
Changing mode choice
IMPROVE
Increasing the energy efficiency of
vehicles, fuels, and transport operations
13
Avoid Strategies: Integrated Land use and
Transport
Mixed Use Development-Transit Oriented
Development
Information and Communication Technology
Shift Strategies:
Non-Motorized Transport
Public Transport
Transportation Demand Management
Improve Strategies:
Cleaner Fuels and Technologies
Inspection and Maintenance
Intelligent Transportation System

URBAN TRANSPORT POLICY
16
•
•
A policy is a guiding principle used to
•
State matters of principle
set direction
•
Focused on action, stating what is to be
It can be a course of action to guide and
influence decisions
•
•
It should be used as a guide to decision
making
under
done and by whom
a
given
set
An authoritative statement, made by a
person or body with power to do so
of
circumstances within the framework of
objectives, goals and strategies to be
These are the features common to good
adopted
policy
17
• Supply – Network, Public Transport,
NMT, Parking, Environment
• Demand–Congestion pricing, Parking
pricing
• Implementation–Institutional,
Financing
• Operation – Fare Fixation, Licensing
18
• To recognize that people occupy centerstage in our cities and all plans would be
for their common benefit and well being
• To make our cities the most livable in the
world and enable them to become the
“engines of economic growth” that
power India’s development in the 21st
century
• To allow our cities to evolve into an
urban form that is best suited for the
unique geography of their locations and
is best placed to support the main social
and economic activities that take place in
the city.

Definition -What problem is the plan intended to solve?
Projection -How will the situation develop if the problem continues?
Constraints -What are the limits of finance, time, etc. within which planning must take
place?
Option -What are the alternatives and their pros and cons?
Formulation -What are the main alternative plans, i.e. packages of available option within
the prevailing constraints?
Testing -How would each of the alternative plans work out in practice?
Evaluation -Which plan gives the greatest value (within the constraints) in terms of solving
the problems already defined

… now let us identify some GAPS in the existing planning process, before we
understand how the process ideally should happen…..
