It also includes planning and implementation of targeted interventions in the transport network or facilities. Mobility is a complex process in the area, starting from the departure from the apartment, using various means of transportation, a number of activities in different goals until to return to the location of the apartment. It thus requires extensive transport infrastructure in the form of walkways, bicycle paths, street and railway network.

Pedestrian zones development in the city means to create pedestrian areas and green islands in all the places in the city where possible.

To accomplish the concept of the green transport plan, the need for change in the parking policy is emphasized.
