Urban Access for the 21st Century synopsis

This book outlines a road map to provide urban access for all. For most of the last century, cities have adopted a road of dependence on urban transport, dominated by cars and favored by middle classes.

Urbanization of the 21st century seeks to change this. Policies need to be more inclusive of access needs for the urban poor.

The change requires the redesign of existing public finance systems that support urban mobility. The aim is to minimize internal bias towards car-based travel.

Through a series of chapters of international contributors, the book brings together experiences from various fields. It illustrates how small changes can stimulate significant positive developments in urban transport and create cities that are already accessible..
