Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport (European Commission) published a report called Sustainable urban mobility: European policy, practice and solutions. It outlines how the EU works towards sustainable urban mobility, examines in greater depth the elements and the process of creating SUMPs, and provides an overveiw of the EU funding opportunities.

In the EU, around 75 % of all citizens live in urban areas, and the tendency is rising. Such a large degree of urbanisation requires a consistent approach towards mobility. Transport is essential to economic growth and welfare as well as to the quality of life in urban areas, but congestion, air pollution, safety and noise pollution are examples of commonly shared problems in European cities. 

The report is available in English, French, Portuguese, Spanish and Chinese and you can download it here.
