About
the Campaign
 The sustainable transport
campaign is organized by the Green Line Association to develop a National Land
Transport Strategy (NLTS) for Lebanon, based on Transport Demand Management (TDM)
principle. This campaign is the result of Green Line’s belief that the solution
for the land transport dilemma in Lebanon is in reducing the number of circulating
cars and not by the classical practice of increasing road capacity. The campaign
brings new ideas to the land transport sector in Lebanon by introducing the concept
of Transport Demand Management (TDM), which is based on a more efficient management
of the available land transport resources. Hence, TDM in Lebanon consists of reducing
the total volume of traffic and promoting shifts into more sustainable modes of
transport, such as public transport, walking and biking. Green
Line's scope of work throughout the campaign includes: - Lobbying for a National
Land Transport Strategy based on the Transport Demand Management. - Raising
awareness and improving public attitude towards the various modes of transport
- Providing consultancy regarding land transport management strategies.
