10. Economic growth

11. Traffic safety Many actors must be involved Average number of fatalities and serious injuries per year in the period 2007-2010, by road category and type of accident. Ambitious goals for road traffic safety The number of fatalities and serious injuries to be reduced by half by 2024 100/500 Other accidents Accidents involving pedestrians Driving off the road Head-on collisions National road County road Municipal road Private road

12. Norway – a carbon neutral society by 2050 Reduce emissions from the transport sector by at least 2.5-4 million tonnes CO 2 equivalent by 2020 compared with the baseline scenario Various measures, including: Expansion of railways and other public transport modalities Cargo transport by ship and rail Research and development to support more climate-friendly transport and distribution of biofuels Substantial impact requires effective measures

13. The cities  Growth must be absorbed by public transport, walking and cycling  Concentrated use of space  Strong emphasis on Buses Urban rail, trams, metros Railways Road network for pedestrians and cyclists  Restrictions on car use

14. Strong regions and more efficient inter-regional transport  Roads  Rail  Airports  Fairways and ports Some examples: InterCity rail strengthens the Eastern region Expanded capacity at Bergen Airport Flesland Shipping fairway to Bergen One-hour travel distance today One-hour travel distance after expansion
