Summary

Cities drive growth because of their ability to bring together firms and workers in an environment that promotes scale and specialisation. Urban mobility is at the centre of this process, enabling firms and workers to access the large and specialised markets for goods and labour that underpin productivity. This paper seeks to frame and inform key areas of urban transport policy, based on economic research, cross country evidence, and on initial learnings from the Strategic Development Phase of the Programme. In this way, it seeks to provide an evidence base for future decision making in urban mobility.
