With over 70% of EU citizens living in urban areas, urban mobility has become a major factor affecting quality of life and health. Urban mobility management is one of the key instruments available to local governments to transition to a more sustainable future and meet the target of a 90% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from transport, as set out in the European Green Deal and contribute to addressing issues such as traffic congestion, poor air quality across the continent.
ICLEI supports cities in citizen-centred urban planning that prioritises non-motorised transport and green mixed-use neighbourhoods, improvement of public transport and in shaping the transition towards electric and shared mobility.

"As we shape the cities of tomorrow, sustainable urban mobility must be at the heart of our efforts - creating safer and more connected spaces where all people and the environment thrive. Sustainable mobility measures hold great potential for urban transformation to climate neutrality."
