PTx2 Scenarios: The benefits of doubling the public transport market share worldwide by 2025

Background information

The following are two scenarios starting from 2005 to 2025:

What happens in a business as usual scenario (BAU)

What benefits does public transport bring if its market share doubles by 2025

(PTx2)?

Business as usual projections and performance indicators have been produced through a

mobility model developed by the International Energy Agency.

Projections are based on demographic, economic and technological factors.

All figures refer to mobility in urban areas.

2005 2025 (BAU) 2025 (PTx2)

Doubling the public transport market share by 2025:

In the PTx2 scenario, GHG emissions increase by only 4% between 2005 and 2025, while the number of trips in cities increases by 50%.

600 million tons CO2 equivalent avoided per year which represents the CO2 absorbed by 50 billion trees or a forest of 1 million km² (the


total surface area of Egypt). PTx2 helps reduce GHG emissions by 20% compared to the BAU scenario. In the PTx2 scenario, the reduction of GHG emissions per capita is of 25% compared to 2005: 40% of this reduction is due to technological advances 60% of this reduction is due to modal shift (PTx2).

Doubling the public transport market share by 2025 means: doubling the number of employees for operators (+ 7 million jobs)

at the same time labour productivity continues to keep increasing

Doubling the market share of public transport worldwide by 2025 In June 2009, the International Association of Public Transport (UITP), set out an ambitious aim for the sector, namely to double the market share of public transport worldwide by 2025. This ambition goes by the name of ‘PTx2’.

Whilst this aim is undoubtedly bold, it is not unrealistic: many cities have already taken up the challenge and are working towards this goal, in line with their specific political, geographical and historical contexts. Why such an ambition? With urban population due to reach more than half of the world population by 2025, cities will come to a standstill if we do not take action. The financial, economic and environmental crises are a stark reminder of the need for urgent action to ensure that our cities offer a comfortable living environment. Public transport is a vital part of the solution. It:

empowers the economy; helps the planet breathe; connects everyone everywhere; and alleviates congestion.

How to achieve such an ambition? UITP’s call for action is aimed at governments, local authorities, investors and stakeholders, as well as public transport actors themselves, be they organising authorities, operators or industry suppliers. Strong political will, intelligent urban planning, the right balance between private cars, public transport, walking and cycling, good operating conditions and a dynamic public transport sector: these are some of the essential ingredients needed to keep our cities moving.
