SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

The European Union is facing a multitude of interconnected demographic, public health and environmental challenges. The scope of this action is to support local authorities in accelerating mobility changes and address a significant concern, namely that people returning to work after the lockdown will seek out alternatives so that allocating public space, bicycles, pedestrians and public transport and reducing the space available for cars will encourage people to cycle, walk or use public transport rather than take the car. 

Expected Results

  • Contribute to the objectives of the Climate Neutral and Smart Cities Mission by accelerating the transition towards climate neutrality in cities through the promotion of zero-emission, shared, active and human-centred mobility,
  • Address proactively potential risk raised by expected increases in cycling and e-scooters,
  • Re-assess road and public space quality responding to needs of diverse groups (women, children, people with disabilities and older people),
  • Rebalancing the attribution of public space to different modes of transport so that it better reflects the actual or desired local modal split as well as support reaching Vision Zero and zero-emission objectives, thus increasing road safety and quality of life in cities.
