Chapter 1: Good Governance in the Transparency, Accountability, Public Participation and Capacity (TAP-C) Framework -- Chapter 2: Urban Transport Governance and Institutional Framework -- Chapter 3: Transport Governance Initiative (TGI) Toolkit -- Chapter 4: Methodology -- Chapter 5: Policy Findings from the Pilot Studies -- Chapter 6-Planning: Findings from the Pilot studies -- Chapter 7-Standards: Findings from the Pilot studies -- Chapter 8 - Regulation: Findings from the Pilot studies -- Chapter 9 - Budgeting: Findings from the Pilot studies -- Chapter 10 - Executing Authority: Findings from the Pilot studies -- Chapter 11: Summary of the assessments -- Chapter 12 - Way forward, Policy Reform and Advocacy in Urban Transport.

This book presents an innovative democratic framework that ensures public participation, based on applying principles of good governance to facilitate urban transport decision-making in an integrated and structured manner. While - given the need for mobility in cities - transport is crucial for urban development, problems such as the fragmentation of institutions, decision-making, and unequal knowledge concentrations represent major hurdles to effective governance outcomes (especially those that go beyond technical and regulatory aspects) Substantial investments continue to be pumped into the urban transportation sector, with cities lacking the necessary capacities or governance mechanisms to ensure optimal returns on these investments. The book introduces the transport governance framework, which is intended to provide an integrated and structured approach to facilitate decision-making processes in the urban transport sector, focusing on how decisions are made rather than what decisions are made. It also discusses the initial testing of the framework in several cities across India. In addition, it examines the application of the TAPC (transparency, accountability, participation, and capacity building) principles of good governance to key aspects of urban transport - policy, planning, standards, budgets, execution, and regulation.
