European Mobility Week 2024 is underway! 16-22 September is dedicated to promoting sustainable mobility in our cities. It is a great opportunity to reflect on how we can improve urban mobility, not only in large cities but also in smaller and intermediate-sized cities. This is also a focus of the Nordic Road Association's (NVF) Urban Transport and Transport Planning working group, which aims to share experiences and best practices for developing sustainable mobility strategies in urban areas. The group works to develop tools and methods that can be utilized to create strategic and sustainable mobility solutions for cities. For the period 2024–2028, NVF’s activities are framed under the overarching theme of “Climate & Environment.” All working groups are aligned with this key theme, and collaboration between groups strengthens the overall development of sustainable mobility. As part of European Mobility Week, don’t forget to participate in Car-Free Day on September 22nd and join the movement towards cleaner, more sustainable urban spaces. #EuropeanMobilityWeek #SustainableMobility #CarFreeDay #NVF #UrbanTransport #ClimateAndEnvironment #MobilityStrategy #NordicCooperation
