- This document sets the transport ministry's strategy to contribute to economic development, build a safe, efficient, reliable, affordable transport system, and thus drives the goals of the National Transport Master Plan 2050. It also complements the ministry's Environmental Implementation Plan 2015-2020.
Objectives of the document include the following: Enabling the transport sector to contribute its fair share to the national effort to combat climate change in a balanced fashion, taking into account the DoT and the sector’s primary responsibility of promoting the development of the efficient integrated transport systems to enable sustainable socio-economic development; - Promoting behavioural changes towards sustainable mobility alternatives through information, education and awareness raising;
- Engaging the low carbon transition of the sector, to assist with the aligning and developing of policies which promote energy efficiency and emission control measures in all transport modes;
- Minimising the adverse effects of transport activities on the environment; and
- Facilitating the sector’s just transition to climate resilient transport system and infrastructure.
