EPTA 2026: Sustainable urban mobility: Policies, implementation and societal impact. The case of Austria

Print
In cooperation with the other EPTA members, the ITA is contributing to the EPTA Report 2026 and analysing the current state of affairs and prospects for sustainable urban mobility from an Austrian perspective.

From a sustainability perspective, mobility is also a key issue within city centres: A “smart city” is one characterised by short distances, where public transportation is prioritised over private vehicle use, as are cycling and walking. The allocation of traffic space – including for so-called “parked vehicles” – is under discussion, as is the energy supply for all vehicles.
