Sažetak
All major cities in the world face the same challenges: improving mobility while reducing congestion on the roads, reducing the number of traffic accidents, and neutralising the negative impact of traffic on the environment. The European Commission has published data showing that the costs caused by congestion inside and outside the city amount to nearly 100 billion euros a year. These traffic jams were most often the cause of delays and pollution. According to the European Commission, one-third of fatal accidents occur in urban areas. The paper deals with and critically reviews the implementation the strategic documents for sustainable mobility issued by the European Commission. Cities in EU Member States have the opportunity to co-finance urban transport development projects through the European Regional Development Fund and the Cohesion Fund. The city of Osijek has used the funds of a pilot project under the European Union I-SharE LIFE program, an innovative solution for sharing electric vehicles in small and medium-sized urban areas. Thus, the city of Osijek has become a model within the said project for the development of shared electric vehicles and consequently for the reduction of environmental pollution. In order to introduce modern transport trends in urban traffic, it was necessary to adapt legislation. The Road Transport Act of the Republic of Croatia introduces significant innovations that enable the introduction of modern mobility trends in urban transport. However, some legal issues are still unresolved, and the legislator has not yet adequately solved all problematic issues on this topic. Therefore, we will analyse changes in Croatian regulations and compare them with the provisions of international conventions and European regulations. At the end of the paper, solutions for legal regulations are proposed for better, safer, more environmentally friendly, and modern urban mobility.
