Tóm tắt :

81 p. Transport eases access to jobs, education, markets, leisure and other services, and has a key role in the economy. Nevertheless, road users generate excessive costs to themselves, other individuals and society in the form of illness, injuries, deaths and damage to mental health and social relationships. The continuing expansion of motorized transport in Europe raises crucial questions about the efficiency and the environmental, health and social implications of land-use and transport policies. The challenge is to promote healthy and sustainable transport alternatives to prevent the negative effects of transport systems on human health. The Member States in the WHO European Region expressed their commitment by adopting the Charter on Transport, Environment and Health at the WHO Third Ministerial Conference on Environment and Health in London in June 1999. Developed from a document prepared for the Conference, this book summarizes the latest scientific evidence on the impact of transport-generated air pollution, noise and accidents on behaviour and physical and mental health. It also highlights the considerable potential health benefits from non-motorized forms of transport, such as cycling and walking. This book can alert policy analysts, decision-makers and politicians to current knowledge and point the way to action for sustainable transport. It calls for policies that require the creators of transport-related costs to pay for them, and take proper account of environment and health implications in decisions on transport infrastructure and urban development.
