Nuova mobilità: metriche e buone pratiche per città più sostenibili La trasformazione dei sistemi di trasporto urbano è al centro delle strategie per ridurre le emissioni, migliorare la qualità dell’aria e rendere le città più vivibili. Il rapporto “Measuring New Mobility: Case Studies & Best Practices” dell'International Transport Forum raccoglie esempi internazionali che mostrano come l’adozione di nuove metriche e indicatori possa guidare in maniera più efficace la transizione verso una mobilità sostenibile.

Casi studio: Parigi, Copenaghen, Barcellona.
