Planning and Design for Sustainable Urban Mobility argues that the development of sustainable urban transport systems requires a conceptual leap. The purpose 'transportation' and 'mobility' is to gain access to destinations, activities, services and goods. Thus access is the ultimate objective of transportation.

As a result, urban planning and design should focus on how to bring people and places together, by creating cities that focus on accessibility, rather than simply increasing the length of urban transport infrastructure or increasing the movement of people or gods. Urban form and the functionality of the city are therefore a major focus of this report, which highlights the importance of integrated land-use and transport planning.

Planifier et configurer une mobilité urbaine plus durable part du principe que la mise au point de systèmes de transport urbain "durables" passe par un saut conceptuel. Le "transport" et la "mobilité" ont pour objet l’accés à diverses activités et destinations, divers biens et services. Par conséquent, l’accès constitue l’objectif ultime de tout service de transport. La planification et la configuration de la forme urbaines devraient donc se concentrer sur les meilleurs moyens de rapprocher les citadins des lieux dont ils ont besoin, en privilégiant l’accesibilité, au lieu de se contenter d’allonger les infrastructures de transport ou d’augmenter les mouvements de biens et de personnes. C’est donc sur les problèmes de la forme et du bon fonctionnement de la ville que se concentre surtout le présent rapport, qui souligne toute l’importance d’une planification intégrée de l’utilisation des sols et des transports.  

Planificación y diseño de una movilidad urbana sostenible sostiene que el desarrollo de sistemas de transporte urbano sostenible requiere un salto conceptual. El objetivo del "transporte" y de la "movilidad" es acceder a los destinos, las actividades, los sevicios y los productos. Por lo tanto, el acceso es la finalidad última del transporte. En consecuencia, la planificación y el diseño urbano deberían centrarse en cómo acercar las personas y los lugares, creando ciudades que se centren en la accesibilidad en vez de aumentar simplemente la longitud de la infraestructura de transporte urbano o incrementar la circulación de personas o mercancías. La forma urbana y la funcionalidad de la ciudad, por tanto, son un aspecto importante de seste informe, que pone de relieve la improtancia de la planificacion integrada del uso del suelo y del transporte.
