The Alps are an extremely sensitive environment located in the heart of the European continent. Special geographical features cause particular constraints regarding accessibility and transport infrastructure. Transport is one of the main causes of climate change – almost thirty percent of all greenhouse gases in the Alps can be attributed to transport – and both passenger and freight traffic volumes are rising continuously. Road transport in particular causes negative externalities such as air pollution, noise and traffic congestion. This makes mobility one of the biggest challenges for the social, economic and ecological development of the Alpine regions. A coordinated approach giving way to a coherent strategy is required to tackle these challenges in order to ensure a sustainable development for the Alps.
The EUSALP Action Group 4 Mobility offers a platform to coordinate and harmonise the activities of Alpine regions and countries for a sustainable transport and mobility system. Its mission is to build a common understanding of transport policy and mobility, to define common objectives and to launch specific activities and projects.
In January 2016, the AG4 lead was awarded to the European Region Tyrol-South Tyrol-Trentino, which mandated the task to its member Tyrol for the following three years. Since 2019 the European Region Tyrol-South Tyrol-Trentino, under the lead of Tyrol, shares the AG4 lead with the Région Sud Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur as co-leader.
Also have a look at our AG4 Factsheet (2021).

In order to address the most important challenges and opportunities concerning mobility in the Alpine Region, AG4 works towards the following objectives:
The 2nd AG4 Work Plan builds on previous results and findings to focus more strongly on implementation and on positioning AG4 as a key player in transport policy making. AG4 activities are implemented under the following three thematic areas (TAs):
