The Government's strategy on energy conservation, the case for reducing the consumption of the liquid fuels used in road transportation, and means of achieving this with minimum negative effects on the economy, are examined. A conservation objective is proposed. Possible conservation measures relating to transport demand, transport and traffic management, roads, vehicles, and drivers are listed. The potential savings achievable are estimated, and contrasted with the costs and other disbenefits. Procedures for evaluating candidate measures and selecting the best set are proposed. Promising measures requiring further research and development before they can be implemented are identified. The need for monitoring progress towards achieving the objective is stressed.
