Reducing road congestion: the CREATE guidelines

Transport and mobility topics lie at the heart of three issues fitted into current political agendas: air pollution, climate change and territorial inequalities. Car use and road congestion have been blamed for contributing to these negative effects. The European CREATE project explores the historical evolution of transport policies from ‘car-oriented’ to ‘planning for city life’ and provides some guidelines to implement more liveable cities and more sustainable mobility by reducing people’s dependency on the car.
