Objective: Introduce Sustainable Transportation for St. Kitts-Nevis with the use of facilities for non-motorized modes in Basseterre City. Develop a database for transportation statistics to inform policy and forecast needs to avoid potentially costly mitigation measures. Formulate a Transportation Plan as an element of the General Plan Framework or Master Plan for the country and implementation framework for re-distribution of mode share, with emphasis on reducing traffic congestion, pollution, and cost to commuters.

Expected Results:

  • Database of transportation statistics developed
  • Percentage distribution of transportation mode share of commuters using private automobiles, mass-transit, motorized bikes, bicycles, and walking determined
  • Effect of spatial distribution and provision of vehicle parking facilities assessed
  • Effect of traffic conditions and design features of transportation networks on mode share assessed
  • Transportation Plan and implementation framework for re-distribution of mode share, with emphasis on reducing traffic congestion, pollution, and cost to commuters formulated
