The CIVITAS Replication and Deployment Programme is now accepting applications for its second cycle (2025–2027), and is seeking 12 Champion Cities to share their experience and inspire action across Europe.
This initiative invites cities that have successfully implemented measures in Road Safety, Behavioural Change, or Mobility Hubs to guide peers—referred to as Challenge Cities—in addressing real-life mobility issues on the ground.
Shaping the Future of Mobility: Key Topics for 2025-2027
Each Champion City will support a Challenge City working on one of three core themes:
Stuttgart (Germany) aims to make school areas safer by tackling poor visibility at crossings—particularly where parked cars obstruct views, putting children at risk.
Reġjun Tramuntana (Malta) is targeting unsafe traffic flows in residential and historic areas, caused by through-traffic from non-local drivers. Their approach involves low-traffic solutions guided by air quality data and CCTV analysis.
Kifissia (Greece) is working to shift short, car-based trips towards walking and cycling through awareness campaigns, shared mobility schemes, and behavioural nudges.
Gaziantep (Türkiye) is reinforcing its Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy with tools like school travel plans and community engagement to help reduce car dependency.
Florence (Italy) is focusing on improving multimodal connectivity around Santa Maria Novella Station by integrating tram services and piloting Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS).
Osmangazi (Türkiye) plans to develop inclusive Mobility Hubs in its historic, sloped city centre, connected by low-emission corridors and co-designed public space solutions.
Champion Cities will have the chance to:
If your city has actionable insights and proven strategies to share, this is an opportunity to shape the future of sustainable mobility across Europe.
