Abstract
The contribution offers a summary vision of the problems that Italy finds itself facing in the pursuit of urban sustainability objectives in line with the EU strategies for achieving climate neutrality by 2050. The growing urban demographic concentration makes the city the true test bed for future community and global challenges. European policies for sustainable urban mobility are particularly important. In Italy, the majority of Metropolitan Cities have updated their Urban Plan for Sustainable Mobility (PUMS) for the strengthening of rapid mass transport, the railway, for the renewal of ecological fleets of public and private transport. Of particular relevance is the growing importance of sharing mobility as a sustainable alternative to transport for the fight against air pollution and the consumption of urban environmental resources.
