Annex 6 Sample TOR for CMP Preparation This annex provides a sample terms of reference (TOR) for use in appointing consultants to assist with the preparation of a CMP. The TOR should be amended where necessary to reflect each city’s characteristics. Sample TOR for the Preparation of a CMP 1. BACKGROUND Rapid development is exacerbating urban transport problems, such as traffic congestion and accidents. Substantial efforts are being made, but cities have difficulty coping with the rapid increase in the number of private vehicles while improving personal mobility and goods distribution. There is insufficient transport planning capacity within local government.

Although some cities have prepared urban transport master plans and undertaken comprehensive transport and traffic studies, these focused mainly on catering for vehicles and did not pay enough attention to personal mobility or goods distribution. It is important to focus on personal mobility to achieve cost-effective and equitable urban transport measures within an appropriate and consistent methodology. This is in line with the National Urban Transport Policy (NUTP). Accordingly, the Ministry of Urban Development (MoUD) encourages each city to prepare a Comprehensive Mobility Plan (CMP) as part of long-term urban transport strategy to provide for a sustainable improvement in the mobility of people and goods in metropolitan regions. The CMP is a key document providing the rationale for transport proposals. Therefore, within the overall plann
