UNEP - Share the Road: Global NMT Policy Survey

Page 1/5

Dear national, city or independent NMT colleague

Together with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Share the Road project, we are conducting an analysis of the global status of Non-Motorised Transport (NMT) plans, policies and other national commitments, and preparing a Global Index to report our findings at the UN Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (also known as Habitat III), in October 2016.  We will share our findings with you ahead of publication.

We have identified you as someone who has insight into and knowledge of the NMT environment in the region, country or city within which you work or have influence. We would therefore be immensely grateful if you could participate in this survey and share this information with us.

Purpose of the survey and report
The purpose of our survey is to analyse and assess the importance of NMT policy and other formal NMT commitments, in order to make evidence-based research available to countries in need to NMT guidance or support. The output is not a ranking of top ‘NMT countries’ with first and last position, but a matrix attempting to depict the value and impact of formal NMT commitments. We may highlight particular ‘success stories’ as case studies, if you would like to share these with us.

Confidentiality
Our index will report by country, city or region, and will indicate only whether the source was official or independent; we will not divulge your names, positions or details without your express permission.

We are aware that the survey is fairly lengthy, and may take 15 minutes of your time. The survey asks for detailed information about NMT documentation, and at times asks that you upload the relevant documentation. You will be able to save your responses online, to return at a later date once you have sourced the relevant documentation, if you do not have it to hand.
 
We thank you for your time and for sharing your knowledge, which will be used to assist other transport authorities with their NMT work and contribute to a better NMT environment for all vulnerable users.

Please do not hesitate to contact me, Gail Jennings, if you have any queries or concerns regarding the survey.

Please could you respond by close of business 6 May 2016.
 
Best wishes

  • NMT commitment: An NMT commitment, in this context, refers to a deliberate plan of action taken by national government to guide decisions and to achieve a particular outcome. Commitments are usually official written documents: policies; laws, legislation or regulations; strategies; engineering or design guidelines; frameworks; or planning documents.  Such Commitments are endorsed or signed by government officials to legitimise the document and demonstrate that it is considered in force.
  • ‘Country or national transport authority’: This refers to the government department, agency or unit that has ultimate national authority for transportation in your country; for example, the National Department of Transport, or the National Transport Ministry.
Please fill in your details below:
