The event will focus on clean and sustainable transport with a conference theme of “zero-emission mobility for all”, according to the Commission.

Urban Mobility Days will incorporate two events in the sector’s calendar – the Civitas Forum Conference and the European Conference on Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (Sumps).

The Commission said that Urban Mobility Days will be a “forum for interaction between policymakers, local authorities, academics, non-governmental organisations, other mobility practitioners and all those putting the Sump concept into practice”.

Included in the event will be the results of the Civitas Living Labs and other projects focusing on clean and green mobility as well as forums about the latest in transport trends and technologies.
