| Popis: | Sustainable mobility is one of the key challenges for further transport development and an increasing quality of life in urban areas. The European Union (EU) encourages its member states to develop transport strategies based on sustainable mobility through EU funds and involvement in various projects launched by the EU Initiative. The Republic of Croatia, as a member state, is still not sufficiently involved in the development of these strategies. Considering the division of the state into regions and counties, we examined the European directives related to sustainable mobility, reviewed examples of good practices in the Republic of Slovenia and then we drafted suggestions for introducing such transport strategies into the Development Strategy of the County of Varaždin. Taking into account the nature of a research paper, we used descriptive methods, compilation methods and deductive methods. With a detailed review of the directives and good practices of the current traffic situation in the County of Varaždin, we concluded that the main focus should remain on the development of cycling, public transport and railway as a means of carrying out freight logistics. It has been proven that the County of Varaždin has the potential to develop transport strategies based on sustainable mobility. |
