16:35 26/5/2021 - Πηγή: metaforespress

In line with the priorities of the European Green Deal and the Sustainable and Smart Transport Strategy, transport – including urban mobility – should become drastically less polluting and undergo twin green and

digital transitions, to build a resilient and sustainable transport system for generations to come.

Additional information is available in the published roadmap.

The European Commission’s new urban mobility initiative, currently under preparation, will operationalise these goals by proposing actions needed to address common urban mobility challenges like pollution, congestion, accessibility and urban road safety, thus improving people’s quality of life.

Within the framework of the consultation process on its new initiative, the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport is organising five consultation workshops on topics of interest for stakeholders and the public:

14 June 14:00–16:00: Consultation workshop on the new EU urban mobility initiative for local and regional authorities, civil society and the general public, including a political session (by invitation only), organised in cooperation with the European Committee of Regions – registration15 June 14:00–16:00: Consultation workshop on the new EU urban mobility initiative for representatives of the Member States Expert Group on Urban Mobility (EGUM)21 June 14:30–16:30: Consultation workshop on the new EU urban mobility initiative: Urban freight transport and logistics – registration24 June, 10:00–12:00: Consultation workshop on the new EU urban mobility initiative: Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs) and Mobility Management – registration28 June, 10:00–12:00: Consultation workshop on the new EU urban mobility initiative: Urban Vehicle Access Regulations (UVARs) – registration

The initiative is due to be published by the end of the year.
