During European Mobility Week, the Road Research Centre (CRR) is highlighting five major challenges that will shape the future of mobility in Belgium.

Mobility is more than just roads or transport; it's closely linked to our lifestyles, land use planning, road safety, climate change, and cooperation among sector stakeholders.
From September 16 to 22, CRR experts shared insights on five key issues: travel as a means not an end, the persistent toll of road deaths and injuries, the impact of road transport on climate, the state of Belgian roads, and the essential need for stakeholder cooperation.
Each day this week, a new article by CRR specialists offers perspectives based on research, data, and field experience.
These challenges are vital for reducing emissions, adapting infrastructure to climate, improving road safety, sustainable road asset management, and ensuring accessibility for all, impacting all of Belgian society.
