Ways to Increase Population Mobility through the Transition to Sustainable Transport

Ways to increase sustainability of the city transport system and, particularly, measures to promote safe public transport and non-motorized means of transport are considered in the article. Analysis of the existing positive experience shows that complex decisions for a sustainable development of the urban transport system are necessary. Technical and organizational ways to increase sustainability and safety of the transport system are studied. The results of solution for separate tasks, which are aimed to meet the goal, are presented: they include definition of transport preferences for the citizens of Naberezhnye Chelny and a model of an adaptive smart-bicycle. It is shown that the reasonable combination of public transport and non-motorized transport systems for strategic and operational management will help to enhance efficiency and safety of transport system.
