Abstract

In light of designing healthy, efficient, and safe human settlements, this chapter looks at the important aspect of developing a complete solution to public transport systems, i.e., to build them sustainably within the context of transport needs that are accessible, affordable, available, and acceptable. An examination of sustainable transport is reviewed with emphasis on environmental sustainability, stressing some of the current difficulties, i.e., congestion and its related costs via wasted time, impaired reliability, and exacerbated air pollution; environmental impacts, both at the global and local level; and health costs arising from air emissions and noise. Case research from Vietnam and Ukraine is investigated and elucidate public transportation trends as well as important needs facing these countries. Traffic congestion, environmental pollution, energy consumption, and the problem of people in traffic are major concerns that urban transport faces. To minimize the risks of vehicle emissions as well as to build green, clean, and sound settlements, important steps are needed in research and development within public transport systems. This chapter is a knowledge-based effort with recommendations to developing comprehensive public transport strategy and structure.
