The Partnership for Sustainable Urban Transport in Asia has helped to raise the awareness on sustainable urban transport and encouraged cities and governments to intensify efforts to improve the sustainability of their transport systems. The Partnership for Sustainable Urban Transport in Asia (PSUTA) is an initiative of the Clean Air Initiative for Asian Cities (CAI-Asia) with support from the Swedish International Development Agency, the Asian Development Bank and EMBARQ the World Resources Institute Center for Transport and the Environment (http://www.cleanairnet.org/psuta/). PSUTA was established as a response to the extraordinary— and largely uncontrolled—growth of motorized transport which threatens air quality, has contributed to increasing congestion and is responsible for hundreds of thousand persons killed each year due to poor road safety. It developed partnerships with Hanoi, Vietnam; Pune, India; and Xian, China. |
