  • PUMA project: one year on board – where are we now?

    A year and a half ago, we set out on a journey to help cities across 8 European countries rethink urban mobility. The idea was simple: work together, share knowledge, and build sustainable solutions through Integrated Action Plans. Fast forward eighteen months, and we find ourselves at a crucial checkpoint.
