According to Electrive, another purpose of the current administration aims to reduce overall traffic by 30% compared to 2017 levels.

Also, in 2024, some of the center of Stockholm will be opened only to electric vehicles and very efficient combustion-powered cars, while heavy duty vehicles will have access there if they're at least hybrid.

In order to reduce overall traffic in the city, more areas will be converted into pedestrian-only zones and will be covered bicycle lanes, which is presented as the alternative to personal transport for the future.

Also, the public transport system is to be encouraged as well, instead of personal cars.

The streets that are to be converted into vehicle-free zones will be announced in 2023 and will be transformed from 2024 until 2026.

To encourage the adoption of clean, emission-free cars, the new city administration also plans to install 100.000 charging stations throughout Stockholm.

Åsa Lindhagen, one of the Green Party’s new mayors in Stockholm, said that "Stockholm will become a green walking city and Europe’s leading bicycle city, and we will make sure that buses arrive faster, and create space for things that Stockholmers demand, such as more trees and greenery."

"We will make Stockholm a city for people", she added.

Oslo is another European city that aims to revolutionize the way people transit it, as it could be the first capital city in the world to have a fully carbon-free public transport by the end of 2023.

The ambitious plans of the Oslo administration could make it be the first emission-free city in the world by 2030, objective which will be aided by purchasing only electric buses and electric ferries.
