The overarching goal of the “CitiesSHIFT: Capacity building and networking for climate- and people-friendly mobility” project is to support cities to identify challenges and opportunities of urban mobility system in hope that the city could shift towards more sustainable modes of travel i.e. walking, cycling, shared and public transport. Building a healthy living environment: Urban form and sustainable mobility system contribute to a healthy urban environment. This TWG helps cities to get a big picture of what the residents need and the kind of city that the policymakers would like to create. Three main aspects: managing urban form and public space to benefit all residents; providing integrated, multimodal and ecomobile travel options. Emerging mobility trends: The emerging mobility trends that cities have seen in recent years range from electric mobility to shared mobility systems, presenting new opportunities to reduce individual ownership and usage of private vehicles. The goal of this TWG is to support local governments to understand the different policy and market drivers to maximize the benefits of electric mobility and new mobility services to support an ecomobile vision.
