• The number of fatalities and serious injuries to be reduced by half by 2024
• 100/500

Norway – a carbon neutral society by 2050
Reduce emissions from the transport sector by at least 2.5-4 million tonnes CO2 equivalent by 2020 compared with the baseline scenario
Various measures, including:• Expansion of railways and
other public transport modalities
• Cargo transport by ship and rail
• Research and development to support more climate-friendly transport and distribution of biofuelsSubstantial impact requires effective
measures
The cities Growth must be absorbed by
public transport, walking and cycling
Concentrated use of space Strong emphasis on
• Buses• Urban rail, trams, metros• Railways• Road network for pedestrians
and cyclists Restrictions on car use
Strong regions and more efficient inter-regional transport
Roads Rail Airports Fairways and ports
Some examples:• InterCity rail strengthens the
Eastern region• Expanded capacity at Bergen
Airport Flesland• Shipping fairway to Bergen
