LILLE METROPOLE

TARGETS AND ACTIONS ON TRANSPORT DECARBONISATION

To decarbonisee public transport and ensure accessibility for all, Lille Metropole will be investing more than 2 billion euros in the next 15 years to develop public transport infrastructures and a low-emission zone should be established by 2022. Lille Metropole is also currently developing its new sustainable urban mobility plan (SUMP), which should be finalised by 2022.

BEST PRACTICES

In conformity with the European Green Deal that intends to make the EU the first continent to be carbon neutral by 2050, Lille Metropole has set energy restraint as an objective for itself in view of moving towards being carbon neutral by 2050. It must make energetic efficiency and decarbonisation efforts upstream for the energetic mix.

Lille Metropole is supporting the evolution of vehicle engine types by promoting the construction of charging infrastructures all over its region. With 600 public charging points available in 90 towns both in the public space but also car parks, with 4 Heavy Goods Vehicle fuelling stations in vNG/OrganicvNG being built, distributed along the region’s major trunk roads, Lille Metropole wants to equip itself with infrastructures that will allow businesses and citizens to switch to vehicles that emit less.
