Mobility and sustainable development - European examples under discussion
The seminar will first present a general overview of the activities of the Car-Free Cities Network, focusing on the aims of the European Commission (DGs XI, VII and XVII). This will be followed by sessions addressing ideas for future urban transport. These will include presentations on areas such as mobility advice for companies, the role of public transport and integrated transport planning.
The discussion of different approaches to mobility will be accompanied by the exploration of practical projects such as ZEUS (Zero and Low Emission Vehicles in Urban Society), supported by the Community's THERMIE programme. Visits to projects underway in Bremen, such as car sharing, car free housing and mobility advice centres, will also form part of this two-day event.
