The objectives of this project are to enhance economic productivity by improving the operational and economic efficiency of the urban transport system, and to strengthen public sector management capacity by improving the planning and management of the urban transport system. Urban transport in Shanghai is inadequate and is starting to be addressed under the first Shanghai Metropolitan Transport Project. The project will be carried out by Shanghai Municipality. The Bank will provide assistance in the areas of strategic transport planning and multimodal transport systems, impact of motorization, public transport operations, traffic management, and transport environmental issues. This project is related to several key actions relevant to the transport sector found in the economic reform action plan designed to speed the evolution of the Shanghai economy.
