The Regional Development Programme of Vas County 2021-2030 (hereinafter: TFP)consists of two parts: the strategic programming part and the operational programme part.The basic purpose of the strategic programme is to provide a strategic basis for the development programme packages and to link the objectives set out in the spatial development concept to the project packages that will be developed. Accordingly, the TFP refers back to the hierarchy of objectives set out in the concept and then defines the development priorities of the programme. The strategy then sets out the tasks related to the monitoring of the programme, following the presentation of the implementation framework.
The strategic part is aligned with the funding conditions, which are expected to continue to be framed by the operational programmes co-financed by the EU (incl. 'Next Generation EU' recovery fund). Key aspects related to sustainable mobility include:Improving Road Infrastructure: The programme focuses on upgrading and maintaining major roads to ensure smoother traffic flow and safety. Public Transportation Enhancement: This aims to make public transport a more attractive option for residents and reduce reliance on private vehicles.Sustainable Transport Solutions: There is a strong emphasis on promoting sustainable transport methods, such as cycling and walking. The programme supports the development of bike lanes, pedestrian paths, and other infrastructure that encourages non-motorized transport.

The overall objective of SE RP 2021-2027 is to increase regional economic competitiveness and improve the living conditions of local communities by supporting the development of the business environment, infrastructure and services, in order to reduce intra-regional disparities and sustainable development, through efficient management of resources, grounded on demographic and innovation potential, but also based on technological progress and innovation. The priority addressed is Priority 3 ”A low carbon region”, Action 3.1 “Reduce carbon emissions in county municipalities and their functional area through investments for the development of clean urban infrastructure (transport infrastructure, cycling, rolling stock, alternative fuels, mobility corridors) based on sustainable urban mobility plans” which responds to the Regional Strategic Objectives no. 3 “Development of urban mobility”. Priority 3 complies to the PO no 2 “A Greener Europe”, SO 2.8 “Promoting sustainable multimodal urban mobility as part of the transition to a zero-carbon economy”. Priority 3 foresees interventions that encourage the development of sustainable urban mobility with contribution of passenger-friendly, attractive and affordable carbon-free public transport; the non-motorised travel and the introduction of intelligent transport and traffic systems. From the total budget of the Programme of almost 1.5 billion euro, 200 mil euro (14%) are allocated to the interventions addressed by the Priority 3.

The "Innovation and Skills in Finland 2021-2027" programme includes a priority axis focused on mobility and transport. This falls under Priority Axis 1: "Innovative Finland," which aims to support various sectors, including sustainable urban development and transport infrastructure projects. The specific thematic area related to mobility and transport is under the objective of creating a "Connected Europe," which emphasizes sustainable transport solutions to improve regional connectivity and accessibility.

The programme is designed to enhance research, development, and innovation, with a strong focus on digital and green transitions, including sustainable transport systems. This initiative is aligned with Finland's broader goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving energy efficiency as part of the green transition​. Sustainable mobility is also part of the Priority Axis 2 - Carbon Neutral Finland aims for promoting energy efficiency and the circular economy and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions with a focus on walking and cycling connections and transportation infrastructure and services.

Kruševac became the first city in Serbia to adopt a Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) in 2017,earning national and international accolades despite limited local support. The city has won multiple awards, was an EMW 2016 finalist, and secured two laurels at the CIVITAS Award 2019. In 2019, Kruševac received the European Commission’s first prize for larger cities during European Mobility Week. The SUMP for 2017–2030 focuses on four key areas: 1) Pedestrian Infrastructure: Expanding walking zones with new paths and improved safety; 2) Cycling Infrastructure: Creating dedicated bike lanes and promoting cycling services; 3) Public Transport: Enhancing transit availability and appeal and 4) Parking Policy: Optimizing parking and encouraging sustainable travel. While initiatives have been underway since 2018, there is still room for better SUMP management. For example, public transport measures (e.g. "Making public transport more attractive and increasing its share in the modal split”) are defined but lack a structured implementation strategy. The plan emphasizes technical improvements aimed at infrastructure, overlooking softer measures that could boost user experience. At the same time, city projects like traffic-calmed murals, youth art workshops at bus stops, and artistic crosswalks are isolated actions with no clear link to the SUMP.

The Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) for the Municipality of Arta aims to enhance sustainable transportation, improve accessibility, public health, environmental protection, and support the local economy. Key components include establishing off-street public parking to reduce central congestion and introducing a central bus station and mini-bus line to link peripheral parking with the city center, improving public transport routes for better accessibility, especially for children, the elderly, and non-car users.
The study promotes a city-wide bicycle network extending to nearby settlements and improves pedestrian networks for safe, accessible walking paths. It also plans medium to long-term road infrastructure projects to enhance connectivity and traffic flow.
Goals include improving transportation access and local services, reducing traffic accidents, boosting physical activity, and minimizing pollution. The study aims to enhance air quality, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, optimize resource allocation, support the local economy, and improve existing infrastructure efficiency. By incorporating measures that will attract passengers and make the journey more enjoyable can lead to a greater update of public transport and active mobility. The SUMP framework addresses current mobility challenges and future needs, creating a more sustainable, accessible, and efficient urban transport system.
