Transitions towards a more sustainable mobility system
What changes are needed in order to move towards a more sustainable mobility system in Europe? A European Environment Agency (EEA) report assesses the latest environmental trends in transport and presents examples of the different transitions needed in terms of technology, urban planning and societal behaviour to make transport more sustainable. The EEA report ‘TERM 2016: Transitions towards a more sustainable mobility system’ assesses the progress that European Union Member States are making to improve the environmental performance of transport in line with related EU policy targets. The report also looks at the big changes underway in the sector, from emerging technologies such as electric and driverless cars, to recent innovations that are becoming increasingly popular, such as shared or on-demand mobility services for commuters.
