description

The indisputable need for new urban mobility policies, which has already been recognised in numerous international, European and national legal instruments, undoubtedly requires a local role in the redefinition of these policies. This action must be carried out in a regulatory context that does not always provide local authorities with all the legal instruments to do so. In this contribution, the primary measures being used to achieve greater sustainability of urban mobility are outlined, as well as a description of the effective room for manoeuvre local authorities normally have, analysing the current limitations they face for a more ambitious deployment and possible models of alternative regulation.
