Transport goals
*Halve the use of conventional-oil-powered cars in urban transport by 2030 and phase them out entirely in cities by 2050.
* Airplanes should be powered by at least 40% low-carbon fuels by 2050, while emissions from shipping should be cut by 40% by the same year.
*By 2030 at least 30% of freight travelling distances of over 300 kilometres should go by rail or water transport, rather than road, rising to more than 50% by 2050.
*By 2050 the majority of passenger journeys between 200km and 1,000km should be made by rail.
*Reduce road-accident fatalities to almost zero by 2050.
