Over the next few weeks, events like this are taking place across Europe - bringing people together to show what our streets could look like when children can cycle, walk and play safely. See what's happening near you (or add your own event!) cleancitiescampaign.org/streets-for-... #StreetsForKids

🌈 Streets For Kids is coming!
This autumn, we're mobilising parents, teachers and children across cities in Europe to call for more School Streets – roads around schools closed to traffic.

Back-to-school season is the perfect time to think about what kind of space children have outside the school gates. Fewer cars = more safety, more calm, and more freedom to walk or cycle. But too often, it’s not the reality. Let’s add safer streets to the back-to-school checklist ✅

🚸 A #schoolstreet isn’t only about safer roads… In Paris, surface temperatures on some redesigned streets were found to be, on average, 5°C cooler than on nearby roads (and in some cases up to 12°C cooler!) 🌡️ School streets are a first step towards more liveable neighbourhoods 🌈💚 #StreetsForKids

Cost-benefit analysis of Dutch zero-emission zones for freight
The Netherlands' zero-emission zones for freight are proving to be a success, with nearly all affected vehicles compliant with the regulations.
020
Clean Cities @cleancitiescampaign.org · 18/08/2026
🙌 And there are encouraging signs that the transition is working 🙌 The compliance rate of vehicles entering the zones has reached 99.8%, and a recent analysis showed that the societal benefits of the zones outweigh their costs by a factor of 4.4 👏

Taking Charge
A comparative analysis of current and required public EV charging infrastructure in four European cities.
000
Clean Cities @cleancitiescampaign.org · 16/07/2026
Cities can reduce infrastructure needs by directing more charging towards workplaces, destinations and private parking, making better use of higher-powered chargers, and reducing car dependency. ✅ This would also free up more public space for other uses.
110
Clean Cities @cleancitiescampaign.org · 16/07/2026
The findings are clear ➡️ cities still need a major expansion of public charging by 2030 and 2035. 📍 But where and how they build matters just as much as how many chargers they install.
110
Clean Cities @cleancitiescampaign.org · 16/07/2026
⚡ Europe’s cities need more public EV charging - but targeted planning could reduce the number of chargers they need to build by more than a quarter. Our new research compares Greater London, Madrid, Paris and Warsaw, four cities with very different networks and starting points.

European cities are set to lose up to 14% of their on-street parking by 2040 due to growing car size. Our new report with @transportenvironment.org shows how ‘right-sizing’ policies to get new cars back to 2015 levels could reverse this trend. Check it out 👇 bit.ly/3SRno6P #carspreading

Nearly 20,000 people are killed on roads in the EU every year, and most of them aren't in cars. The change we want to see starts with lower default speed limits, school streets to protect children, and measures to tackle carspreading so that our cities are built for people, not cars.
