Abstract
Good mobility is essential for addressing Trondheim's three most significant societal challenges: social exclusion, reduced economic flexibility, and the nature and climate crisis. However, car traffic has increased in recent years, leading to more congestion, delays for buses, and increased noise and air pollution. Current trends indicate that Trondheim may struggle to meet its societal goals and the zero-growth target. It is essential to implement a combination of incentives and restrictions, ensuring that restrictive measures are balanced with alternative transport solutions. This involves addressing issues collaboratively with various stakeholders, recognizing that policies are often based on historical data rather than current public needs for new transport services. A more holistic planning approach with cross-sectoral policy coordination is necessary.
