Abstract:The pilot study "Environmentally Sustainable Transport in the CEI Transition Countries" was initiated by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the Republic of Austria (Federal Ministry for the Environment, Youth and Family) to study current trends in transport volume and mode choice and their likely impacts on the environment within Central Europe. It analyses possibilities to reduce the environmental effects of transport by modeling three different "environmentally sustainable transportation scenarios", based respectively on technological improvements, transport demand management and a combination of both. The study concludes on strategies and measures for achieving "Environmentally Sustainable Transport" (EST), taking account the specific situation in the countries in transition, and therefore, suggests a diversified approach. This pilot study provides a scientific basis for the work of the CEI SubGroup on Environment and Transport to implement the "Ministerial Declaration towards Sustainable Transport in the CEI countries." It will also serve as a basis for further national or regional pilot studies on Environmentally Sustainable Transport (EST) in the future. Illustrations, graphs, tables, maps, 63p.
