“…Starting from a literature survey on indicators [18] 4 and some workshops and seminars with experts, the three standard dimensions of social, environmental and economic sustainability were articulated into thirteen PSUM objectives, each of which was linked to one (single or composite) performance indicator (see Table 2). The social dimension of sustainability was split in two sub-dimensions: accessibility and liveability.…”

Background The assessment of policies for sustainable urban mobility features two basic characteristics: incommensurability and strong uncertainty. This is why multiple dimensions of evaluation and a structured room for collective deliberation and learning should be considered. Methods A participative procedure is used to select a core set of performance indicators of policies for sustainable urban mobility. Citizen participation and stakeholder involvement are obtained through a national sample survey and a deliberative multi-criteria analysis, respectively. This procedure is applied to the Italian case. Results Citizens are more oriented towards reducing private transport costs, air pollution and traffic accidents; stakeholders are more in favour of improving car-free accessibility and reducing the consumption of land and public space generated by urban mobility. The resulting core sets of indicators are highly sensitive to the threshold chosen for the selection. Using a lower cut-off threshold, four performance indicators are shared between the two sets: 'CO2 from transport', 'Quantity and quality of public transport', 'PMx, COVNM, NOx, CO from transport', 'Death and injuries from traffic accident'; using a higher cut-off threshold the two sets feature no intersection. Concluding remarks Further testing at a local scale is needed in order to explicitly consider context-specific objectives, indicators and data; stronger interactions among experts, citizens and stakeholders are needed in order to avoid the generation of equivocal results.

“…A notoriedade desse questionamento refere-se ao fato de que a dinâmica entre estratégia e estrutura é amplamente utilizada dentro da literatura organizacional, de forma que a adaptação organizacional é resultado da gestão de incertezas e do ambiente, de modo a atender objetivos políticos e operacionais (HENDRICK, 2003 (BANISTER, 2003(BANISTER, , 2008LOUKOPOULOS;SCHOLZ, 2004;RICHARDSON, 2009;GIL et al, 2011;IBEAS et al, 2011;HRELJA et al, 2013;LUCA, DE, 2014;HICKMAN et al, 2014;MAMELI;MARLETTO, 2014;SPICKERMANN et al, 2014;SAGARIS, 2014;BAUMANN;WHITE, 2015), o presente trabalho não entra no mérito de discutir todo este processo, mas como tais políticas públicas são implementadas através de novas diretrizes operacionais e mudanças na estrutura organizacional das organizações envolvidas.…”

“…Segundo Stead (2016b), a governança e novas formas de gestão surgem em face da complexidade das políticas de mobilidade urbana e da necessidade de incorporar múltiplos atores públicos e privados em diferentes níveis de governo e em decorrência destes policy instruments. Consequentemente, os temas gravitam em torno das questões políticas em mobilidade urbana, em temas como participação pública e de stakeholders em diversas etapas da formulação e implementação política (GIL et al, 2011;HRELJA et al, 2013;DE LUCA, 2014;HICKMAN et al, 2014;MAMELI;MARLETTO, 2014;SPICKERMANN et al, 2014;SAGARIS, 2014;BAUMANN;WHITE, 2015), a integração política e suas complexidades (WANG et al, 2014;HRELJA, 2015;KOGLIN, 2015), as barreiras ao planejamento e implementação política (HRELJA et al, 2013;GÖSSLING;COHEN, 2014;LINDAU et al, 2014;ELIASSON;PROOST, 2015;OLSSON et al, 2015), ou então abordagens em longo prazo com recomendações políticas como construção de cenários (HICKMAN et al, 2012(HICKMAN et al, , 2014CROZET;LOPEZ-RUIZ, 2013), bem como forecasting e backcasting (OLSSON et al, 2015).…”

The transportation sector contributes significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions, so it is crucial to assess and measure the sustainability of transportation systems. In this context, this study was conducted to develop an integrated index through the use of the multi-criteria decision analysis method. The method combines existing discrete indexes into one comprehensive evaluation of public transportation, resulting in the sustainable transport planning index (STPI). In the STPI model, sustainability of transportation systems is assessed based on social, economic, and environmental factors that support the implementation of zero emission busses. The weight of each indicator is determined through the analytical hierarchy process, where expert judgment is used to assess the relative importance of each indicator. Normalization of indicators is performed to ensure comparability and consistency. The final STPI index is calculated as the weighted average of the normalized indicators. The STPI model reduces bias in the decision-making process by considering multiple aspects and utilizing a structured approach to transport planning. The results of this method can provide valuable insights for decision-makers, public transport agencies, government ministries, the private sector, and other stakeholders. As case study model, the STPI model was applied to the public transport system of the United Kingdom from 2007 to 2019, however; the methodology and lessons learned are applicable to all countries that are in the process of assembling data sets to weigh trade-offs and inclusions in relation to sustainable transit such as accessibility and health impacts.
