| 553 | Stockholm | City of Stockholm | Sweden | Europe | 2015 | Private Transport | Improve fuel economy and reduce CO2 from trucks (private) | Currently in effect and being piloted | CleanTruck - Increase use of biofuels in heavy vehicles, setting up two refuelling stations for heavy vehicles; one for biogas and one for ED95. Subsidies of ethanol, biogas and hybrid trucks. Although trucks only represent five to ten percent of all traffic in Stockholm, they cause almost half of the environmental impact from traffic. An environmental adaptation of road haulage is therefore of high urgency. This could involve anything from logistics and planning to reduce transports and maximise loading, to a transfer to cleaner vehicles and renewable fuels. The City of Stockholm has worked actively with environmental adaptation of passenger cars since the mid 1990s. As a result, a wide range of clean cars are now available on the market and the number of filling stations for renewable fuels is rapidly expanding both in Stockholm and the rest of Sweden. | City's own funds / savings | |

| 562 | Sydney | City of Sydney | Australia | Southeast Asia | 2015 | Private Transport | Infrastructure for non motorized transport | Currently in effect and being piloted | The City recognises the popularity of walking, with over 92 per cent of trips in the city centre by walking and over 29 per cent of employed residents walking to work. The City continues to improve our streets, parks and plazas for pedestrians. Work includes extensive new tree plantings and landscaping, footpath renewal and widening, and new pedestrian crossings. We are also creating shared zones for safe walking and cycling and assisting in the implementation of the NSW Government’s 40km per hour zone in central Sydney. In May 2014 the City undertook a major walking survey, to monitor the scale and movement of pedestrian traffic in Sydney City. It revealed that, of the five top city centre spots with the most foot traffic, three of them are at intersections along George Street, making it the stand-out location for walking in the CBD. The survey will be conducted twice a year in May and October, providing valuable data to guide further improvements. The City is working closely with Transport for NSW to deliver safer and better walking conditions, and co-hosted the international Walk21 conference in October 2014. A draft City of Sydney Walking Strategy and Action Plan is in development. In October the City launched the first step in a comprehensive wayfinding and tactile signage network that will make the city more accessible for people of all abilities. The $8 million Legible Sydney Wayfinding System will link central Sydney streets using around 2,100 tactile and braille street signs, pedestrian-friendly maps, information pylons, new signs and digital technology.
