ENVIRONMENT OR TRANSPORT; WHAT DO WE NEED IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES?
Revealing people needs with respect to transport and the environment helps decision-makers and donor agencies to direct further projects. From an attitude survey the reaction of a representative sample of Greater Cairo travelers is recorded. Thus, we try to know how people think? what their needs? are they aware of the effects of transport on the environment? do they believe that improving transport should come first? or can they live with current traffic problems but with improved environment? are there differences between attitudes of the respondents by soci-economic group and travel mode? The paper tends towards general conclusions that can be generalized and/or transferred to other developing countries.
