The Clean Air Act
RA 8749, also known as the Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999 is a policy that
aimed to balance development with environmental protection. It pursues a
sustainable development framework and aims to:
a) formulate a holistic national program of air pollution management,
b) Encourage cooperation and self-regulation among citizens and industries
through market-based instruments;
1
c) Focus primarily on pollution prevention rather than on control and provide
for a comprehensive management program for air pollution;
d) Promote public information and education to encourage the participation of
the public in air quality planning and monitoring; and
e) Formulate and enforce a system of accountability for short and long-term
adverse environmental impact of a project, program or activity.

World Bank Urban and Local Government Strategy. 2000. Cities in Transition
The exercise of preparing a new urban and local government strategy for the
World Bank begain in late 1997 as a cross-sectoral, cross-network effect
coordinated by the Urban Anchor and Urban Partnership in the
Transportation, Water and Urban Development Deparment. With guidance
from a Bankwide steering committee, the strategy activity focused initially on
organizing eight workshops at the Bank, spanning all the major urban and
local governance issues. Based on these and other inputs, a first draft of the
strategy document was prepared in July and circulated in the Bank and to
external readers. The Bank’s new urban strategy, Cities in Transition: A
Strategic View of Urban and Local Government Issues, was discussed and
approved by the Board of the World Bank in December 1999.

Types of Innovations
Innovation is often in the eye of the beholder - what may be new and radical
for one person, may be old news for another. Despite this subjectivity in
identifying and classifying innovation, there has been useful work in thinking
about the focus of different innovation processes, guided by the question:
what is it that innovation processes seek to change and improve?
The ‘4Ps’ model developed by John Bessant and Joe Tidd provide a powerful
tool for such analysis. It builds on the hypothesis that successful innovation is
essentially about positive change, and puts forward four broad categories
where such change can take place:

Guillen, M.D. et.al. 2012. Is the use of informal public transport modes in
developing countries habitual? An empirical study in Davao City,
Philippines. Transport Policy. Elsevier. http://bit.ly/1gHWdQZ
Using Davao City, Philippines as the case study area, the paper tries to explore
the concept of habit and dependency on the different road-based public
transport modes based on both theories of rational behavior and planned
behavior. The findings suggest the need to understand Filipino commuter's
psychology and a careful review and understanding of the concept of
sustainability, infrastructure needs, seamless multi-modal connections and over-all
quality of service given limited economic support in a context of an emerging city
in a developing country.
This document describes the role that performance measurement can play in
public transportation planning and management, the need for developing cities to
start adopting performance evaluation and the steps for initiating this. This
document provides examples of successful public transport performance
evaluation system from across the globe, including developing cities that are
17
beginning to explore these systems, and identifies key factors necessary for
creating successful evaluation systems. This information will be useful to policy-
makers, analysts, and practitioners involved in urban transport planning and
particularly public transport planning and provision in cities, in both developed
and developing countries.
This paper revisits and updates the cost of congestion and discusses the
implications including lost opportunities due to the slow delivery of transport

This is a presentation made by DOTC to 5th Regional EST Forum. It outlines the
country’s achievements in identified EST areas and future strategies towards
achieving sustainable transport.
This research study intends to present an overview of this public transport system
together with its role and characteristics. In addition, it also intends to
recommend some measures to improve the transportation system along these
canals in Bangkok and exhibits how the reincarnation of this mode of transport
can leave the urban transportation planners with substantial alternatives to
provide mobility when traffic congestion and safety issues still remain unsolved in
Bangkok. The study provides insight to incorporate water transport within the
mainstream of transportation planning and progress towards a sustainable
integrate transportation system which can alleviate the existing congestion and
18
safety problems and eventually pacify the transformation of Bangkok from the
“Venice of East” towards the “Jungle of Concrete.”
The main outcome of the study was a planning support system that includes an
updated database of bus, jeepney, and UV Express routes for Metro Manila and
its surrounding areas (collectively called Mega Manila), and a calibrated travel
demand model for the region that is supposed to be used by the DOTC and the
LTFRB in transport planning including the rationalization of public transport in
the region.
This paper presents the current transportation and traffic situation in Metro
Manila and mitigating measures or schemes that are being implemented, as well
as those proposed to alleviate the impacts of traffic congestion. Among these are
the Do-Fixed Project, Do-Existing Project, and Do-Maximum Project which cover
existing transport network, completing expressways, skyway and LRT/MRT lines,
which should be incorporated with city plans of the LGUs.
Choices about a mass rapid transit system are choices about a city’s future. This
module surveys mass transit systems around the world, and compares the
19
different systems according to key parameters such as cost, construction time,
environmental impacts, poverty impacts, speed, passenger capacity, and so on. It
concludes that although there is no single mass transit solution, for most
developing cities Bus Rapid Transit may be the best option. It is complemented
by a Training Course on Mass Transit.

This module provides direction to developing cities on how to break out of low
quality, high-risk, low profit, low investment spiral in which so many urban bus
systems in the developing world are now caught. It introduces and outlines the
concept of an annual planning cycle, and shows how developing cities can
improve bus systems from viewpoints of operators, drivers, regulators, and
passengers. It is complemented by the Training Course on Bus Regulation and
Planning – Bus Sector Reform.
Bus rapid transit is a remarkable new phenomenon in the world of transit. This
module provides practical guidance on how a developing city can plan, finance,
design and implement a world class Bus Rapid Transit system. As a planning
template for developing cities, this module can drastically reduce planning and
consultancy costs which a developing city would otherwise incur in developing a
BRT system. This module is complemented by the Bus Rapid Planning Guide

REFERENCES Kodukula, S. 2010. Recommended Reading and Links on Non-Motorised
Transportation. GTZ. www.sutp.org
This paper shows that pedestrians, cyclists and non-motorized rickshaws are the
most critical elements in mixed traffic. If infrastructure design does not meet the
requirements of these three all modes of transport operate in sub-optimal conditions,
it is possible to redesign existing roads to provide a safe and convenient environment
for non-motorized modes of transport. This also results in the improved efficiency of
public transport vehicles and an enhanced capacity of the transport corridor when
measured in number of passengers per hour per lane.

The Agenda 21 for Urban Mobility describes the future trends, challenges, and tasks
in the field of urban mobility and presents a series of good practices from all over the
world.
The chapter starts with a clarification of the main terms used in the discussion of
urban mobility institutions and governance. This is followed by a regional review of
current conditions and trends of institutional and governance developments that
affect urban mobility policy-making, planning and management and ultimately, many
aspects of urban land-use developments. A number of key institutional and
governance challenges and underlying influences facing cities are then drawn from
this review. The chapter also contains a discussion of policy responses to these
challenges, with some detailed examples drawn from good practice. It ends with
concluding remarks and lessons for policy makers.

The National EST Strategy was prepared through a participatory and consultative
process involving key stakeholders at the local and national levels following the
Administrative Order No. 254 by the President of the Philippines (dated 30 January
2009) which mandated the DOTC to lead the formulation of such strategy.
The formulation of the national strategy is primarily intended for the identification of
priority challenges in the context of EST that would need to be addressed through the
formulation of strategies. These strategies will have specific targets, incorporate multi-
sector commitments, and recommend measures for the promotion of EST in
Philippines.

Bongardt, D., Schmidt, D., Huizenga, C., and Litman, T. Sustainable Transport
Evaluation
On behalf of the Federal Ministry for Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear
Safety (BMU), GIZ has reviewed existing evaluation schemes for sustainability in the
transport sector to determine which are most appropriate for sustainable transport
planning and policy purposes on an international level. The analysis concludes that
there is currently no sustainable transport evaluation process that is mature enough
for processes such as the UN Commission for Sustainable Development (CSD). The
study therefore outlines options for choosing appropriate indicators and evaluation
schemes, and proposes a working plan for starting an evaluation process within the
CSD 18/19 framework. It also summarizes the benefits of an evaluation scheme not
only for the national and local governments, but also for donors and the scientific
community.
The major focus of this study is the review of the existing transport indicator
initiatives of the EU and other international organisations as well as the development
of an indicator set to measure sustainability of transport systems. Initially, the major
characteristics of environmentally sustainable transport are defined and indicator
quality selection criteria and quantitative targets as guideline criteria for selection of
transport related indicators are presented. The following parts are dedicated to a
review of a number of major EU and international indicator initiatives. On the basis of
10 transport related international initiatives which include EC Sustainable
Development Indicators, EC ETIS study, the EEA TERM indicators, Eurostat transport
indicators, transport indicator sets from OECD, US EPA, World Bank, UNECE, VTPI
29
as well as taking into account the EC JRC Well-to-Wheel study a set of 55
sustainable transport indicators has been identified. In addition, causal chains among
the selected indicators are analysed according to the DPSIR framework.
This brochure aims to introduce local authorities and urban transport professionals to
twelve innovative concepts in four thematic areas: 1) Innovative Concepts to Enhance
Accessibility; 2) Efficient Planning and Use of Infrastructure and Interchanges; 3)
Traffic Management Centres; and 4) Automated and Space Efficient Vehicles. Each
concept is illustrated with good practice examples, key benefits, decision criteria for
implementation, and useful references.

COURSE TITLE (IM2) PROGRAMS, PROJECTS, AND PRACTICES: INCLUSIVE
MOBILITY PROJECT MANAGEMENT
COURSE This module showcases the various inclusive mobility initiatives, and learning
DESCRIPTION from their successes and failures. The module will also focus on the elements
and strategies of an inclusive mobility project management cycle – co-
diagnosis, co-design, co-delivery, co-deploy – including the financing and fee
models.
SKILLSET/ CASE The participants will have an opportunity to discuss the following issues and
STUDY concerns surrounding inclusive mobility project management. Examples of the
following topics are:
Poor conceptualization and implementation of supposedly “inclusive
mobility projects” – giving the projects a bad name (e.g. Bikelanes,
good and bad BRT; safety vs. mobility)
Level of co-diagnosis/ participation
How do we integrate this in official government survey?
Maps – does the government do bikeability and walkability maps?
How do we determine if projects are socio-cultural fit?
What are the different perspectives of planners and decision makers
in coming up with financial and political design for inclusive mobility
31
projects?
This publication details GEF in the field toward realizing sustainable urban transport
all over the world. GEF look forward to remaining a catalytic force for change to
meet global environmental challenges from climate change — through this
document it hope readers gain a deeper understanding of what GEF do now and
what it expect to accomplish with its partners in the developing world.
This report summarizes the main findings from PSUTA. Aft er presenting the
Strategic Framework, a broad theory of indicators of sustainable transport is
developed. This is followed by a description of some of the indicators as they were
developed by the three partner cities. Their assignment was to develop indicators,
noting the gaps in information and suggesting ways of bridging those gaps in the
future. Noting some of the shortcomings of each city’s findings, some general
lessons are drawn, particularly the sustainability of transport in each PSUTA city.
Recommendations are included for supporting the key aspects of filling the gaps. A
key theme that runs throughout the report is that the goal of PSUTA is not wide
data collection, rather identification of what data and indicators are necessary for
each city’s leaders to make good decisions on sustainable transport.

This publication is intended as a practical guide for mayors, local government officials,
sector specialists, planners, and other decision makers involved in the programming and
design of urban infrastructure projects in medium-sized cities.
The initiative provides assistance to medium-sized Asian cities to bridge the gap between
their development plans and the implementation of their infrastructure investments. CDIA
uses a demand driven approach to support the identification and development of urban
investment projects in the framework of existing city development plans that emphasize
environmental sustainability, pro-poor development, good governance, and climate change.

How can we make the identified projects operational?
We have people but do not have appropriate training and skills. How do we
maximize them?
