From Good Practices to the SMILE Recommendations
|
 |
| In order to draft recommendations for local authorities, a questionnaire was prepared by the SMILE partners and sent to 700 local authorities throughout Europe with the objective of making an inventory of successful and replicable practices for sustainable mobility. As one of the SMILE project aims was to capitalise in particular on the results of the European Car Free Day and European Mobility Week Campaigns, cities and towns who participated to these initiatives were the core target. |

Each local authority was asked to provide comprehensive information about its overall transport policy, measures implemented and actions undertaken to promote sustainable mobility. The questionnaire was focused on permanent measures the local authority had implemented or intended to launch shortly. Measures were included which had been made permanent in the local authority, which contributed to modal transfer from private motorised traffic to more sustainable modes of transport and to a more sustainable urban mobility in general.
The data collected allowed the SMILE partners to prepare 170 successful and replicable practices for sustainable mobility (see the "local experiences database" sub-section).
The analysis performed afterwards by the SMILE partners jointly with experienced European cities and towns as well as with several experts in the field of sustainable transport policies led to the preparation of recommendations for local authorities (see guide entitled "Towards Sustainable Urban Transport Policies: Recommendations for Local Authorities" in the "Results" section of the website).
