Abstract
The field of mobility and transport has undergone major changes in recent decades, being a close link between it and the general economic development. Taking into consideration that urban areas concentrate the most of inhabitants and socio-economic activities, the negative effects generated by the increased road traffic are present mainly in the cities, especially in their central areas. People’s involvement in awareness-raising actions on environmental issues caused by transport activity is a starting point for achieving a sustainable urban mobility system. Information and awareness of people about the link between travel behavior that they adopt and negative effects on the environment is a first step towards educating them in order to shift to sustainable mobility patterns. The paper highlights the awareness and participation component of people in the development and implementation of sustainable urban mobility plans, as an educational action for environmental protection and sustainable mobility. This concept of involving citizens is detailed within a case study.
