Transportation is the movement of people and goods over time and space. This is an important matter in our lives, and people cannot live without it. Transport enables access for people with their homes to their work, education, health services, shops, and so forth. The transportation system has many problems in developing countries such as traffic congestion, lack of reliable and safe public transportation, road accidents, and difficulties for non-motorized transport. The transportation sector is the highest responsible part of harmful environmental impacts in cities and is also responsible for high air and noise pollution and generating greenhouse gas emissions. Forming a sustainable and green urban transportation system with an integrated method is essential for policymakers and decision-makers. This system changes the path of urban transport and mobility toward a more sustainable and green future by providing an emerging affordable, economically viable, the orientation of people, and environment-friendly transport systems. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the present condition and problems facing the transportation system in developing countries in general and particularly in Afghanistan. It also presents the Afghanistan government’s intervention in solving mobility and transportation problems. Finally, the study examines the strategies and approaches that transportation experts must use to address sustainable and green transportation.
