Sustainable Mobility
Sustainable mobility is based on strategies that minimize the environmental, economic, and social impact of transportation. It includes promoting public transport and bicycle use, as well as the electrification of the vehicle fleet and urban planning focused on pedestrians.
Key objectives:
- Reduction of pollutant emissions: Reduce greenhouse gases and other pollutants associated with transportation.
- Promotion of sustainable alternatives: Promote options like walking, biking, or efficient public transportation.
- Improvement of energy efficiency: Encourage low-consumption technologies and zero-emission vehicles.
- Adapted infrastructures: Create urban environments with bike lanes, pedestrian areas, and well-integrated transport networks.
- Accessibility and inclusion: Ensure safe, accessible, and affordable mobility options for the entire population.
Examples of best practices:
- Pontevedra (Spain): It has drastically reduced traffic in its city center by prioritizing pedestrians.
- Ontinyent (Spain): Introduced free urban buses, increasing their use and reducing private traffic.
- Shared bike systems: Implemented in many cities as a practical and sustainable alternative.
Associated technologies:
- Electric and shared vehicles (carsharing).
- Intelligent transportation systems.
