out of ten EU citizens believe that the traffic situation in their area should be
improved2. The choices that people make in the way they travel will affect not
only future urban development but also the economic well-being of citizens and
companies. It will also be essential for the success of the EUs overall strategy to
combat climate change, achieve the 20-20-20 objective3 and to promote
cohesion.
The Kyoto Protocol and Europe 2020 are also something that should be
beared in mind while proposing changes, as to keep up with environmental
goals. These projects propose alternative fuels in order to lower GHG emissions
and replace oil based carburants, as reserves are expected to exhaust by 2050.
With all of these being said, there are still numerous solutions for
transportation problems across the EU, at local, regional, national and european
levels, with the best answers coming from the citizens that face these problems
on a daily basis.
