Summary

Win-Win Transportation Solutions are cost-effective, technically feasible, market reforms that help solve transportation problems by increasing consumer options and removing market distortions that cause inefficient travel patterns. They can provide many economic, social and environmental benefits. If implemented to the degree that is economically justified, Win-Win Solutions could achieve the transportation component of Kyoto emission reduction targets while stimulating economic development and reducing other problems such as traffic congestion and accidents. This paper discusses the Win-Win concept and describes a dozen excellent Win-Win strategies.

This paper is presented as a contribution to the 11th United Nations climate change conference held this week in Montreal.
