The condition of urban transportation in Asian megacities is getting worse particularly under the trends of rapid urbanization and motorization. Policy makers have realized the gravity of the problem and have taken various measures to improve the situation. As most developing countries are facing severe resource constraints, there is huge gap between infrastructure demand and supply in Asian megacities. And given the specific characteristics of Asian megacities, the policy solutions successfully tested somewhere else may not produce similar results for them. This calls for exploring innovative policy measures considering special features of Asian megacities and at the same time leaning from experiences of cities in developed countries.
