    Territorial Impact of Transport Policy Scenarios

    The reduction of emissions forms a key objective for the European Commission and the Europe 2020 Strategy confirms the 20-20-20 targets aiming at a reduction in EU greenhouse gas emissions. The maps of this month show European regions that are affected by excessive emissions in different transport policy scenarios. The flags on the map warn policymakers indicating where geographic concentrations of transport policy impacts can be expected.
