Abstract:

The main implementing partners, Agence Française de Développement (AFD) and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), are supporting 23 SUMPs and 3 NUMPs, and 7 SUMPs and 8 NUMPs respectively. CODATU, Cerema and ADEME and the Wuppertal Institute are supporting cities in capacity building activities. 

The completion of 8 SUMPs and 3 NUMPs in 2019 has helped mobilise an additional 811 million euros for concrete sustainable mobility projects in partner cities and countries. Aggregated across locations with confirmed follow-up projects, this investment will lead to l2 metro lines, 8 BRT corridors, 5 cable cars, 21 bus corridors, 6 transport hubs, stations and depots, 10 trams, 150 buses and trolleybuses. These investments will enable approximately 6 million people to have improved access to public transportation. With ongoing work in another 22 cities and 10 countries, they expect to be able to scale this success.

In addition to concrete results in mobility planning and mobilising finance for investments, the Partnership is raining awareness on the need to decarbonise urban transport and building capacities to enable transformation.
