As we begin 2025, we stand at a critical point in the journey toward achieving global sustainability targets, particularly in transportation. The year marks the halfway point to the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and serves as an opportunity to reflect, recalibrate, and take decisive action toward transformative change. 2025 is a moment to take stock of progress and raise our ambition to ensure we meet our targets by the end of the decade. For urban transport, our focus is to reduce carbon emissions and improve the long-term sustainability of public transport, cycling, and walking. The year 2025 is also a milestone for climate financing, as the international community evaluates financing mechanisms put in place to support the Paris Agreement. We know that the urban transport sector requires much more investment in the coming years to meet both the 2030 SDGs and the 2050 Paris Agreement goals.
