| In recent years, the development of low-emission public urban transport in Europe has become one of the main priorities of many cities. It is assumed that urban transport is one of the largest sources of air pollution emissions, therefore the development of more ecological transport methods is necessary to protect the environment and the health of residents. Many European cities have introduced various measures to increase the share of low-emission public transport. One of the most important is the development of tram and metro networks. Trams and metros are more ecological than cars because they do not emit air pollutants while driving. In addition, many cities use hybrid or electric technology for city buses, which reduces emissions of carbon dioxide and other harmful chemicals. Measures such as emission zones and city center congestion charges for combustion engine vehicles are also effective in reducing air pollution. Some cities have also introduced bicycle rental programs that encourage residents to move around the city using more ecological methods of transport. As part of EU policy, many cities receive subsidies for the development of low-emission public transport. The European Union is putting effort into promoting greener transport, both by financing projects and setting standards for reducing emissions of harmful substances by means of transport. The lessons learned from the development of low-emission public urban transport in Europe are very beneficial for environmental protection. The positive effects include reducing air pollution emissions, reducing road congestion and improving the health of residents. Therefore, continued investment and the development of ecological transport methods are necessary for the sustainable development of cities. |
