| description |
Many inhabitants of rural areas in
developing countries lack adequate and affordable access to
transport infrastructure and services. Improving rural
people's access to essential services requires better
mobility through transport infrastructure and services as
well as the location, price, and quality of facilities. This
report focuses on improving rural mobility by facilitating
the provision of affordable means of transport and transport
services. To deliver significant economic and social
benefits, investment in transport must take an integrated
approach. Rather than focusing solely on expanding road
networks, it should also pay attention to smaller roads,
paths, and tracks; the use of private and commercial means
of transport; and the importance of transport hubs and
markets. Transport planners need to take a holistic approach
that involves all stakeholders in a participatory process of
assessing needs within a clear policy framework based on the
interdependence and complementarity of different means of
transport. In addition, favorable policies and operating
environments can enable the private sector and
nongovernmental organizations to play important roles in new
initiatives. Pilots can be used to promote lower technology,
intermediate means of transport. The needs of women and
disadvantaged groups should be considered during planning.
Monitoring and evaluation involving stakeholders are also important. |
