What are the Urban Mobility Days?

The first edition of the Urban Mobility Days combines two leading events from Europe’s transport and mobility calendar: the CIVITAS Forum Conference and the European Conference on Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs). The event was initially planned to take place as a three-day conference in Brussels from 29 September to 2 October. However, the event's new online format will enable participants to join debates and exchange expertise on the most important urban mobility topics safely from their desks.

It will allow policymakers, local authorities, academics, NGOs, urban transport practitioners, urban planners and all those putting the SUMP concept into practice to share their experiences using a virtual forum.
