GWENDOLYN SCHAEKEN NATIONAL CONTACT POINT - Smart, green and integrated transport
The reality about transportation is that it's future-oriented. If we're planning for what we have, we're behind the curve. Anthony Foxx United States Secretary of Transportation 2013 to 2017
Smart, Green and Integrated Transport - resilient - resource-efficient - climate- and environmentally-friendly - safe and seamless for the benefit of all citizens, the economy and society - expected to contribute to reaching the global climate targets set by the COP 21 Paris Agreement and have an impact on the implementation of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals SDGs.
Specific Programme Smart, Green and Integrated Transport Four broad lines of activities aiming at: a. Resource efficient transport that respects the environment b. Better mobility, less congestion, more safety and security c. Global leadership for the European transport industry d. Socio-economic and behavioural research and forward looking activities for policy making
