The path towards the mobility of the future will have to be
taken through sustainable means. This guideline, which
had already been outlined by the European Commission in
its White Paper on Transport, launched in 2011, has been
gaining strength on the ground and Portugal is a proof of
that. On the one hand, the country has been a pioneer in
electric mobility and today it is covered by the Mobi.E
loading platform, in a model which Europe has imported
and is now implementing, within the project Mobi.Europe.
In parallel, despite registering very different record levels
from those who are in countries like the Netherlands or
Denmark, the use of bicycles as urban transportation has
become increasingly a strong issue in public agenda, both
in terms of legislative measures and in projects developed
by local authorities directed at improving mobility in cities
and energizing their public space.
In a year in which the theme of the European Mobility
Week (“Clean air – it’s your move!) points precisely to this
mission for sustainability, Jornal Arquitecturas joins the
event and organizes the 4th Conference on Urban Mobility
in partnership with the Municipality of Lisbon, under the
motto “Preparing Cities for the Mobility of the Future – from
Soft Modes to Electric Mobility”.
As a space for reflecting on the sector’s innovation and on
the affirmation of electric mobility and bicycles in the
urban context, the conference will bring together experts,
professionals and entrepreneurs for a day of strategic
debates and presentation sessions of the latest innovations
in the industry of electric mobility, of the projects that are
emerging in the context of two-wheel mobility, and of the
new solutions for fleet management and urban logistics –
and such presentation sessions are taking place in a Pecha
Kucha format. The idea is also that these debates are open
to the general public, and thus the public will also be
invited to share its proposals for an urban mobility of the
future. There will also be room for a company and municipalities display, which will take place concurrently with the
conference.
Mark your calendar now: the 4th Conference on Urban
Mobility takes place on September 17, at MUDE – Design
and Fashion Museum, Lisbon.
