EU action for Urban Mobility

  • 03/11/2008

Improved urban planning, new technologies and infrastructure measures have a central role to play in more efficient and sustainable transport systems. The EU should be mindful of subsidiarity, and add value to the activities of cities and regions. Measures to encourage the provision of good quality, environmentally-friendly (fuel-efficient, low-emissions, quiet) collective transport, and to encourage walking and cycling as viable alternatives to private vehicles, should be central aims of EU action on urban passenger transport.
