abstract: The global transport sector is responsible for 24% of global CO2 emissions. A third of this comes from all road users. Reasons for the emission are the street space allocation and street use. Therefore, this paper tries to find out more about the overall sustainability of streets leading to their city centre in Berlin and Groningen. By counting the street use and looking at the street space allocation, we can find out how sustainable streets are and see if they are sustainable for the foreseeable future. This paper concludes that both cities contain a high level of sustainable mobility. With Berlin focusing primarily on public transport and Groningen on Active mobility. However, differences can be found between the West and East in Berlin. The West is predominantly car-dependent while the east has more on-street public transport available. Groningen forms an example for Berlin when it comes to promoting active mobility and forming a more sustainable street space allocation. This makes promoting active mobility by street space allocation and policies in city centres the best way to achieve sustainable street use.

comment: Hij mag gewoon gepubliceerd worden. Ik vind deze vraag een beetje vreemd gesteld. Deze vraag brengt onnodige verwarring bij mij op.
