4th ACEM Conference
Powered Two-Wheelers and Urban Mobility
The European Commission's new Green Paper “Towards a new culture for urban mobility” acknowledges the growing amount of traffic on urban roads and urges policy makers to consider all mobility tools available.
For many urban trips powered two-wheelers are an alternative to the use of cars, providing citizens and businesses with improved mobility and accessibility in cities. They free space and complement public transport, thus successfully integrating urban traffic plans. How to achieve free-flowing mobility while at the same time reducing congestion, pollution and accidents is a challenge ACEM is determined to pursue together with EU legislators, city authorities and citizens organisations.
An exhibition of powered two-wheelers urban solutions and manufacturers’ innovations will take place during the walking lunch and at the end of the conference.
