Detailed description (English): Ahead of the upcoming European elections, UITP launched a Mobility Manifesto to call on the forthcoming EU decision-makers to lead with public transport by placing "Mobility On Top" of the agenda. It is time for decision-makers to recognise the major role public transport plays in the life of our cities. By driving policy towards more innovative, sustainable and multimodal collective mobility services in Europe, we can place #MobilityOnTop!
We launched an online platform to invite all decision-makers and transport representatives to sign our Manifesto. The platform will be used after the elections to promote the use of public transport and active modes (walking, cycling,...), and to present our priorities for the next legislature.
On this platform, we created infographics about the public transport benefits.

Target group(s): EU decision-makers (Members of the European Parliament, candidates to the European elections, European Commission representatives, relevant political representatives)
Objectives: Our objective is to make public transport and mobility a key priority for the next legislature.
Expected Outcomes: We expect as many signatures as possible.
