We are Europe’s largest network of organisations on a mission to build public support for cities to shift from polluting cars to active, shared and electric mobility.
Clean Cities is hosted by Transport & Environment.
Backed by research, we shape city, national and European policy, trusted by both policymakers and campaigners for our dedication to transformative change.
Our audience-focused campaigns deliver lasting change for city residents, creating significant climate and health impacts, while improving overall quality of life.
With partners across Europe, we’ve built a movement of citizens urging city leaders to prioritise people by placing them at the heart of modern urban transport solutions.
We have projects, campaigners and partners on the ground in France, Italy, Spain, the UK and Poland.
We are also part of the global Clean Mobility Collective that campaigns for zero-emission freight transport in the USA, Asia and Europe.
Implementing ZEZs, starting with delivery vehicles, is crucial for reducing urban carbon emissions. Complementary policies will support the swift introduction of these zones.
Expanding urban charging stations is essential to overcoming barriers to full electrification. This rollout must be efficient and minimally intrusive.
Electrifying shared rides, which constitute a significant portion of urban driving, provides a practical introduction to electric mobility for many users.
Promoting e-cargo bikes as an alternative to polluting commercial vehicles is vital for sustainable last-mile logistics, offering quicker and cost-effective delivery solutions.
Our Streets for Kids campaign delivers school streets that reduce air pollution and transform school runs, which account for approximately 25% of morning rush hour traffic.
Reallocating road space from vehicles to create safe, inclusive and environmentally friendly areas will benefit future generations.
