Clean Air Asia and GIZ Jointly Release Sustainable Urban Freight in Asia Publication

Freight transport has severe negative impacts on the local air quality in many Asian cities, and contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. To avoid such undesired effects and at the same time to foster economic development by assuring an efficient supply of urban agglomerations with the wide range of required goods, local and national governments in Asia need to take action now.

The joint GIZ - Clean Air Asia publication "Sustainable Urban Freight in Asia" provides an overview on the current situation with regard to urban freight in Asia and outlines possible measures to be taken. It is based in part on SUTP's Module 1g Urban Freight in Developing Cities.
