- Abstract
Due to a change of lifestyle in people's behavior of preferring the urban life in the detriment of a rural one, urbanization has major implications on transport systems, as well as on climate change in general and air quality in particular. Under the conditions in which urban mobility plays an important role in a city's sustainable development, the current paper wishes to present two viable solutions for the sustainable urban transport, that is congestion pricing and the development of pedestrian areas, reviewing in the same time some examples encountered at world level, as well as the first steps taken by the Romanian authorities regarding these measures.
