El European Investment Bank (EIB) is calling for individuals and organisations to participate in shaping the development of transport systems worldwide.
The bank’s questionnaire gives everyone a chance to share views about how the transport should evolve in coming decades. Chapter 3 – Urban Mobility and Chapter 5 – Extra Urban Roads are especially important for road safety.
Safe journeys – walking, bicycling, in public transport, on motorcycles and in vehicles – are at the heart of sustainable transport. It is critically important that banks and governments align with the new Plan Mundial para el Decenio de Acción para la Seguridad Vial 2021-2030 with the aim of halving road deaths and injuries. By achieving the UN Global Road Safety Performance Targets 3 and 4 with 3-star or better travel for everyone, we will save more than 450,000 lives a year.
The deadline for contributing to this public consultation is Friday 29 October 2021.
