Abstract
Reviews the challenges and opportunities for transport in urban areas. It finds that the impact of transport on the people that live and work in cities goes beyond the benefits of mobility and the economic consequences of congestion. Poor air quality, ill health and road accidents from transport in urban areas all impose significant additional costs on society.
