Safe mobility’s got the dot!

A safe mobility campaign has been launched with the aim of improving safety for all citizens when getting around. On the website mobilitat.barcelona you’ll find visual and easy-to-understand information on the regulations for getting about in the city on foot, by car, moped or electric scooter.

Over 90% of those sustaining serious injuries in road accidents are motorcyclists, pedestrians, cyclists and people riding electric scooters. That’s why we all need to be familiar with the regulations, so that we can get about the city safely and comfortably and reach our 2050 goal of zero road deaths and zero injuries with lifelong consequences.

Now it’s much easier for us to get around thanks to this campaign, which you can find on the website mobilitat.barcelona. The site explains everything which is permitted or prohibited when circulating in Barcelona, and includes recommendations for when you travel by car, van or lorry, by motorbike, electric scooter, bike or on foot.

You can also find other useful tools for getting around the city safely. For instance, real-time information on mobility incidents and disruptions to traffic or the search feature to find spaces for cyclists and pedestrians, where you simply indicate your location to find out about bike lanes, traffic-calmed streets and widened pavements available to you.

Another key feature is the ‘Getting there’ route planner, which calculates the best way to get from one point to another in the city. All you need to do is specify where you are and where you want to get to, and the tool displays different options on foot, by bike, by private vehicle and public transport. The website mobilitat.barcelona also keeps you up to date with all the latest news in this sphere and more information on the Urban Mobility Plan, to achieve safer, healthier and more sustainable mobility.
