Relive Urban Mobility Days 2020 – session recordings and presentations available
From 30 September and 2 October, the first Urban Mobility Days brought together some 1,400 policymakers, local authorities, academics, NGOs, urban transport practitioners, urban planners and urban mobility practitioners.
They came together to focus on solutions to make mobility in cities and towns more sustainable and work towards making zero-emission mobility a reality for all.
Matthew Baldwin, Deputy Director-General for Mobility and Transport, Coordinator for Road Safety and Sustainable Mobility for the European Commission summarised some of the key messages to come from the conference. He cited a "clear demand in cities for cleaner air, safer, less congested streets and to tackle CO2". He also advocates for more pedestrian zones and segregated bike lanes to be implemented to enable people to walk and all cycle all year, as well as lower speed limits and equitable sharing of city space.
