Active mobility — walking and cycling.

Description

Active mobility, the movement of one’s own muscle strength, plays a key role in the mobility transition. Walking and cycling are climate-friendly, healthy, inclusive, cost-saving, pollution-free, quiet and area-friendly. However, active mobility also needs appropriate conditions and framework conditions, such as fair allocation of public spaces or the promotion of road safety of active forms of mobility. This short study shows the status quo of active mobility and potentials for promotion. Finally, international examples show how more and more cities and municipalities use innovative approaches to create more space for active mobility and contribute to the sustainable mobility transition. This short study was prepared as part of the project “Sustainable Mobility Transition” on behalf of the German Federal Environment Agency.
