Improving Public Transport for a Changing Urban Landscape
- 24.10.2024
- Online
SPINE & UPPER projects are organising their 3rd webinar of their joint series, diving into the issue of urban shared spaces.
European cities redesign urban space to improve the quality of life for citizens and visitors, but also to address the climate change emergency. Mobility as a basic human right puts public transport as the spine of the local mobility offer. This is central to any modern urban space redesign. Few cities from SPINE and UPPER projects will present their experiences to date in improving the mobility offer and addressing also the urban space. Moreover, AMIGOS project will also present how one its cities address the urban space redesign having in mind certain social categories’ needs and expectations.
When: 24 October, 11-12.30 (CET time)
Duration: 1.5 hrs
Registration: Registration link
The cities will share their experiences in redistributing urban space with a focus on Mobility as a Right; redesigning urban spaces to implement mobility hubs and testing alternatives for social purposes; PT prioritization services and cycling safety; and pedestrian infrastructure.
