Urban transport is a key issue for members of the Committee of the Regions, as local and regional authorities have a central role to play in providing and regulating the bus, tram, metro and rail services we all use everyday. Given their direct experience of dealing with transport problems, CoR members are keen to ensure future EU transport policy will be as effective as possible. The seminar comes at a timely moment, with the European Commission poised to launch a Communication on Urban Transport.
Journalists are welcome to attend the seminar.
The Stockholm Transport Forum is being organised by the Stockholm County Council Office of Regional Planning and Urban Transportation, with the Committee of the Regions. It will also include a two day conference on Connecting people and markets around the Baltic Sea.
