This final report summarises the outcomes of the study “Transport poverty: Definitions, indicators, determinants, and mitigation strategies” commissioned by DG EMPL. Proceeding based on three tasks, the project (i) investigates the concepts and definitions related to transport poverty, (ii) researches and estimates possible indicators for measuring transport poverty and (iii) collects effective mitigation strategies addressing specific manifestations of transport poverty, exploring the interplay of the relevant stakeholders and how these processes are grounded in national policy making. The report also reflects key results from four national case studies carried out for Germany, Poland, Romania and Spain.
