Sustainable and vibrant cities. Opportunities and threats to the development of Polish cities

Highlights Recovery of neglected, post-industrial and post railway areas; The density of existing development, protection of green areas in the city; Environmental protection by introducing pro-ecological solutions in the construction and activities related to environmental education; Creation of high quality public spaces, the revitalisation of downtown areas, the introduction of ecological and paid parking lots; Promoting and introducing eco-friendly solutions in collective transport, namely in trams, e-buses, and hybrid buses.
