Abstract

In this paper, we evaluate and revise the to assess how well cities are doing in meeting the targets set by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, we utilize the service level benchmarks adopted by the Ministry of Urban Development (now the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs), Government of India in 2009, and we create a composite Sustainable Urban Transport Index. In order to identify the many ways in which the MoUD SLBs, 2009 fall short of their potential as a useful instrument for measuring city performance in achieving the goals of the NUTP, 2006, an in-depth study was conducted using these documents as a starting point. To fine-tune the SLBs and their indicators and to assign weights to different indicators and benchmarks, a two-stage poll of experts and stakeholders was conducted using the Delphi technique. The Ministry of the Interior and the Urban Mass Transit Corporation and the Institute of Urban Transport conducted the research and the Centre for Engineering Planning and Technology (CEPT, 2013), and the results were utilized to do an effect study with secondary data from those same 13 cities. The study's main conclusion is that significant changes need to be made to the MoUD SLBs, 2009 in order to achieve a more all-encompassing vision for sustainable urban transportation. Among the modifications are the addition of Intermediate Para transit as a new benchmark (now called a Performance area), the inclusion of new indicators for public transportation, pedestrian infrastructure, and road safety, the reorganization of existing indicators within the respective performance areas, and the adjustment of the relative importance of existing indicators. In addition, statistical analysis and a survey of the relevant parties were conducted & have resulted in the assignment of varying weights to various indicators and performance areas.
