  7. 25. Need for speed : towards urban planning for rapid transitioning to sustainable personal mobility

    Författare :Varvara Nikulina; Henrik Ny; David Simon; Henrikke Baumann; Göran Broman; Ulf Ranhagen; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; personal mobility; urban planning; rapid transition; sustainability;

    Sammanfattning : The Paris Agreement, the recent Special Report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and the Sustainable Development Goals are examples of United Nation’s facilitated calls for urgent climate action and more generally for a rapid transition of society towards sustainability. Since urban personal mobility is a significant contributor to society’s current sustainability challenges, and considering current trends of population growth and urbanisation, there is a strong need to develop enhanced support for urban planning for rapid transitioning to sustainable personal mobility.
