Transformative capacity for climate mitigation in strategic transport planning : Principles and practices in cross-sectoral collaboration
This article presents findings from a qualitative in-depth analysis of a four-year Swedish national policy initiative where six public agencies got the task to produce a strategic plan for a transformation towards a fossil-free transport sector. The specific aim of the article is to provide empirically grounded insights on principles and practices of importance for building transformative capacity in strategic, long term transport planning. In the analysis, we have applied the concepts stewarding, unlocking, transforming and orchestrating to explore and discuss transformative features of the policy initiative. Altogether, we found that several elements of transformative capacity were developed through the process. Of specific importance was the open and explorative approach to the task, and the ways in which the organizations involved challenged existing routines, perspectives and ways of working in conventional transport planning. New joint principles for assessment of policy measures for climate mitigation were developed, as well as ways to accommodate uncertainties. However, as the initiative was detached from more established planning settings, the question is whether the new principles and practices will lead to a more substantial transformation of the transport system. ; Mistra Sustainable Accessibility and Mobility Services
