Transport and Covid-19: responses and resources

Our work on
Decarbonisation

The transition to carbon-neutral mobility is the biggest challenge transport faces. The Decarbonising Transport (DT) initiative is the umbrella for ITF’s activities to support the shift to moving people and goods in ways that do not damage our natural environment. All DT projects share a single aim: to empower decision makers to select policies that deliver on their climate commitments.
