With the rising importance of environmental quality the primary goal of transportation policies is increasingly defined as sustainable mobility. However, the concept of sustainability does not only refer to the natural environment. Transport policies need to accommodate, to varying de-grees, three objectives: economic growth, social equity and environmental sustainability. The challenge of policy formulation is complicated by the fact that all three objectives are themselves multi-dimensional. The costs and benefits of policy measures to promote sustainable mobility in cities are likely to be differentially distributed across different segments of the population based on location, socio-demographic and economic characteristics, behavioural patterns (including travel behaviour) and demand attributes. Discrete measures designed to benefit one group often adversely affect others. Spillover effects occur between spatial units and on a temporal dimen-sion. There are positive synergies between some policies, whereas other policies cancel each other out. Thus there is a great societal benefit in designing harmonised, comprehensive policy packages to promote sustainable mobility      «
