Sustainable development has become fashion in such way that
sometimes it is rendered meaningless. Sustainable transport is the expression
of sustainable development in the transport sector.Mobility of people and
goods has undergone a rapid economic and social growth through the recent
years. However, the progress achieved thanks to mobility may become
harmful and is likely to to be a serious obstacle to countries which opted for
sustainable development policy.Transport, being the heart of economy, is
one of the most energy consumming sector. The increase of traffic and
mobility has certainly beneficial effects, but it also has a negative impact on
resources as well as a higher energy cost.To deal with the issue of
sustainable transport in a region with a very high transit flow is not an easy
matter. We will try, throughout this work, to study this matter and put
forward a few ideas in response to the problem thanks to a regional
investigation on the application of sustainable development by haulage.
