    The document discusses the Asian Development Bank's Sustainable Transport Initiative. It shows that ADB's transport lending has increased significantly over time, with roads and highways receiving the majority of funding historically. The initiative aims to focus on more sustainable areas like regional corridors, emission reduction, urban transport, road safety, and emerging technologies. The initiative promotes solving transport issues by avoiding unnecessary travel, shifting to more efficient modes, and improving vehicle technologies. ADB's transport lending pipeline for 2009-2011 is projected to significantly increase and focus more on rail, urban, and multimodal transport projects.
