Description
This report includes discussions on transport and health data availability, and analysis for specific transport scenarios for the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area (GAMA), using the Integrated Sustainable Transport Health Assessment Tool (iSThAT). The tool provides a framework for the rapid assessment of health and economic benefits. Three mitigation scenarios have been modelled to compare the effects of different policy interventions with regard to land use, transport mode, energy efficiency and demand, and their relative impacts on public health and associated costs
