FOREWORD
Methodology for Estimating Carbon Footprint of Road Projects started a couple of years ago with a simple question: how can the South Asia Transport and Communications Division assist in developing a carbon emission calculation methodology—an important milestone in future project evaluation?
We know our strength lies in our access to transport projects and the data related to them. Therefore, we embarked on a journey to research existing methodologies of carbon
