UVAR in SUMP

As the fight against climate change intensifies, Urban Vehicle Access Regulations (UVARs) are gaining popularity for their potential to reduce emissions and enhance air quality. UVARs encompass measures such as Low Emission Zones, Traffic Limited Zones, Pedestrianisations, and Parking Regulations. However, their implementation often faces challenges due to their broad impact beyond geographical boundaries, affecting factors like accessibility, social inclusion, and affordability. While the UVAR SUMP Topic guide published in 2019 provides valuable insights, further guidance is needed, especially regarding stakeholder engagement, complementing measures, and information for tourists. Projects like Dynaxibility4CE produced additional guidance documents and tools, including an annex elaborating on UVAR implementation considering Functional Urban Areas (FUAs).
