The analysis done in the period 2018-2019 contributes to the UK response to improving transport in the low-income countries in Africa and South Asia. As a result, key priorities have been identified for applied research in 2020 to make road, rail and urban transport more efficient and affordable, and all transport greener, safer and more inclusive for all users. This applied research is a vital link in making transport a sustainable lifeline for people in low-income countries, because transport gives farmers and manufacturers access to domestic and international markets and people in rural and urban areas access to schools and health services. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $acapability plan 610 $alow-income countries 610 $arailways 610 $arailway technical strategy 610 $aSouth Asia 610 $aSub-Saharan Africa 610 $asustainability 610 $alow-carbon transport 610 $asustainable mobility 610 $aclimate change strategies 610 $atransport policy 610 $aParis Agreement 610 $agender 610 $atransport 610 $aaccessibility 610 $asmart city 610 $asmart mobility 610 $alow- and middle-income countries 610 $atransport corridor 610 $atransport infrastructure 610 $atransport development impacts 610 $awider economic benefits 610 $acorridor management 610 $atransport costs 610 $apassenger and freight 610 $aroad and railway 610 $aLow Income Countries 610 $aroad 610 $amaterials 610 $arecycling 610 $anon-conventional 610 $arisk 610 $adesign 610 $apartnering 610 $aageing 610 $adisability 610 $amobility 610 $aolder people 610 $apoverty 610 $aurban 610 $achildren 610 $aAfrica 610 $aAsia 610 $ayouth voice 610 $aschool 610 $awork 610 $aroad safety 610 $aunder-reporting 610 $abest practices 610 $avulnerable groups 610 $ainjury severity 610 $aroad crash costing 610 $acrash data 610 $acapacity building 610 $apeople with disabilities 610 $ainclusive transport 610 $ahigh volume transport 610 $aaccessible transport 610 $aaccessible road and rail infrastructure 610 $aefficient transport services 610 $atransport corridors 610 $agreen transport 610 $alow carbon transport 610 $adisability and mobility 610 $agender disparity 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aBurrow$b Michael$4edt$01327831 702 $aGhataora$b Gurmel$4edt 702 $aThompson$b Bruce$4edt 702 $aObika$b Bernard$4edt 702 $aBurrow$b Michael$4oth 702 $aGhataora$b Gurmel$4oth 702 $aThompson$b Bruce$4oth 702 $aObika$b Bernard$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557680503321 996 $aSustainable High Volume Road and Rail Transport in Low Income Countries$93038156 997 $aUNINA
