The chapters have been so-developed that they present a broad overview of the relevance of sustainable transport system in the context of environment and climate change which determines how sustainability needs to be an underlining part of the policy framework and infrastructural development. Inclusion of case studies based on the traffic scenarios of Delhi-NCR and transport scenario of India, as a whole, has imparted practicality to the text. The book will be relevant to the researchers, policymakers, administrators, policy planners, students, teachers, and general public at large and help them in discussing, disseminating, and propagating the work to inform political and societal decision-makers in identifying problems and offering solutions that can be widely implemented in the larger public interest.
