The general objective of the project is to reduce CO2-equivalent emissions from motorised road transport in Bucharest by 574 tonnes/year. By purchasing the 12 new trams that will run on line 32, the aim is to increase the attractiveness and improve the efficiency of public passenger transport, frequency and journey times, accessibility and implicit transfer to it from private transport by car. The objective of the project is in line with the measures set out in the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan 2016-2030 drawn up for the Bucharest-Ilfov region, a strategic document approved in March 2017 by the General Council of the Municipality of Bucharest.

ACCESIBILITY – Ensures that all citizens are offered transport options that facilitate their access to essential destinations and services; I-I. Safety AND SECURITY – Improving safety and security in circulation; III. Environment – Reduction of air pollution and noise, greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption; IV. Economic Efficiency – Improving the efficiency and economic effectiveness of passenger and freight transport; V. QALITY OF THE URBAN MEDIUM – Helps to increase the attractiveness and quality of the urban environment and urban design for the benefit of citizens, the economy and society as a whole.
