KonSULT’s mission is

  • to clarify the process of developing sustainable urban transport strategies through the Decision-Makers' Guidebook; and
  • to enable policy-makers to select effective policy instruments using the Policy Guidebook.

KonSULT’s aim is to contribute significantly to the achievement internationally of urban transport policy objectives of reduced congestion; an enhanced environment; greater safety; better access; fairer opportunities; improved quality of life and increased sustainability.

The Decision-Makers' Guidebook offers a logical structure for specifying objectives, indicators and targets, identifying possible solutions and strategies, assessing their impacts and implementing them successfully.

The Policy Guidebook allows each policy measure to be described, with multimedia images of operation where appropriate; to be assessed against a common set of potential objectives of urban transport policy; and to be represented by case studies of good practice in their use. Where possible, an assessment is made of the contexts in which each policy measure performs best. Links are provided between the policy instruments so that opportunities can be identified for integrating them to achieve enhanced performance against the objectives.
