Abstract

This paper discusses four innovative transport solutions and strategiesthat have the potential to bring about this revolution in the way we live. The four examples are: 1. the London and Stockholm congestion charge; 2. the London Low Emission vehicle policy; 3. the Swedish Vision Zero road safety policy; 4. the Bogota project. In passing it shows that many cities around the world have achieved a high standard of living and liveability in close harmony with low levels of car use, high levels of walking and cycling and relative independence from oil depletion concerns.
