Guidelines for Developing and Implementing a Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan in Kosovo’s cities – FIRST EDITION

The National Guidelines on Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning (SUMP) takes a fresh, forward-looking  approach  for  a  relatively  new  field  of  action  by  municipalities  and  their  partners  in  Kosovo.  

Taking  into  account  existing  guidance  from  the  European  Union  and  our  real  experiences from implementing SUMPs in Mitrovica South Municipality and Mitrovica North Municipality,  the  aim  of  this  publication  is  to  provide  guidance  on  developing  sustainable urban transportation systems. Why is this important for Kosovo? Sustainable urban mobility planning can improve the quality of life, social equity, transport accessibility, intermodal integration, economic viability, urban attractiveness, sustainability and environmental quality by ensuring that all people, businesses and other affected parties are involved and benefit from this process. The implementation of a SUMP would improve and harmonize the needs of all traffic participants for free and safe movement  while  enhancing  citizens living  comfort  and  ensuring  a  better  quality  of  life.  It presents a strategy for efficient movement of people and transportation of goods and potential sources of funding towards the implementation of mobility investments by considering social, environmental and economic connectivity dimensions.
