The Challenge of Sustainable, Local Mobility
Sueña Madrid > A Plan in Motion > The Challenge of Sustainable, Local Mobility
Setting the standard for public and private transport in a comfortable, liveable city
Madrid faces the challenge of planning mobility in a way that reduces emissions, improves air quality, and ensures safe, accessible journeys for everyone. This means reclaiming public space for people, integrating public transport, active travel, and shared mobility solutions, and using technology to improve management and anticipate demand. Mobility is a key driver of quality of life, social cohesion, and competitiveness, and it requires long-term vision, regulatory flexibility, and citizen participation.
Areas of Action
- Safe, healthy, sustainable, and efficient mobility.
- Reducing transport demand by creating conditions that avoid unnecessary trips.
- Greater multimodality and active travel.
- Promoting new technologies in transport and in the management and efficiency of mobility systems.
Safe, healthy, sustainable, and efficient mobility
Mobility in the future is about more than moving from one place to another: it is about connecting people, neighbourhoods, and opportunities in a fairer and more sustainable city. We want a system that cuts emissions, strengthens public transport, integrates new technologies, and ensures accessibility for all. A mobility model that makes Madrid more diverse, inclusive, and resilient, able to adapt to change and improve urban quality of life.
The mobility of the future must help create a connected, diverse, inclusive and resilient urban space capable of adapting to change.
Getting around Madrid should be synonymous with safety, health and sustainability. We are committed to a mobility model that prioritises walking, cycling and public transport, reducing emissions and improving air quality. We want safer, more accessible and better-connected streets, where technology and innovation enable more efficient journeys and a more liveable city for everyone.
Reducing transport demand by creating conditions that avoid unnecessary trips
Reducing unnecessary travel is essential for more efficient, sustainable, and healthy mobility. We support an urban model that brings services, jobs, and leisure closer to neighbourhoods, encouraging a more local city model and remote work where possible. Rethinking demand does not mean limiting mobility; it means planning better to save time, energy, and emissions while improving quality of life and Madrid’s competitiveness.
Greater multimodality and active travel
We want mobility to be more flexible, healthy, and sustainable, with walking, cycling, and public transport as the easiest and most attractive options. The goal is to integrate different transport modes into one connected, safe, and efficient system that reduces car dependence and improves air quality. More multimodality and active travel mean better health, more time, and a better quality of life for everyone.
Promoting new technologies in transport and in the management and efficiency of mobility systems
The mobility of the future will be smart, efficient, and sustainable. We want to promote innovative transport modes and intelligent systems that optimise traffic management, reduce emissions, and improve the travel experience. From electrification and autonomous mobility to digital platforms that bring all services together, technology is key to a city that is more connected, safer, and ready to adapt.
