Building forward better by transforming to new, clean, safe, healthy and inclusive mobility and transport

cover

Transport is one of the major sectors of the economy of the pan-European region, and travel and mobility are essential parts of modern life – providing access to services, goods and activities. At the same time, transport can cause a significant burden on the health, well-being and even national economies in the region, through: emissions of air pollutants, greenhouse gases and noise; traffic congestion; injuries; physical, social and biodiversity fragmentation; socioeconomic disparities; land-take; and reduced opportunities for physical activity.

Transport, health and the environment are crucially interconnected. THE PEP – the Transport, Health and Environment Pan-European Programme – makes the links.

THE PEP is the first and only international programme designed to integrate environmental and health aspects into transport, mobility and urban planning policies.
